Welcome!

 

Dear Member of MadStage,

If you find yourself here, exploring ticketing options, it means you care about your theatre, your festival, your performing arts center, your art.

We are here to make the world better. It may sound corny, but we're not ashamed of that. In practice, it has been about hard work and dedication.

Theatre, Dance, Music: these expressions of the human spirit need support in our society. At Ticket Turtle we make your lives easier by making ticketing and record-keeping more efficient. We also try to be ourselves! Ticket Turtle is not a "corporate" type of experience, but we are efficient, courteous, and professional.

Our website is an expression of our company. Big on content, low-key on marketing. We save money that way and keep our prices low.

We'd love to talk to you about your theatre, project, festival, marketing campaign, concert...give us a call or drop us an email!

Who We Are

Ness Blackbird
Software Designer & President
"After many years as a systems designer for nonprofits, I got very excited about the idea of starting a service which would help theatres. I was never cut out to be a consultant -- I'm no good at politics. So I spent several years writing Ticket Turtle, and I've been very lucky to find the extraordinary people who have helped me make this system into a viable business -- the people whose pictures appear on this page, and others who have joined us over the years. Thank you all!"
 

Spike (Patrick Spike)
Director of Customer Relations
"Ticket Turtle is about powerful features, incredibly affordable cost, and ease of use for our customers. As a former Director of Information Technology for one of the biggest theatres in the nation, and conducting a search of every possible ticketing system out there, I'm STILL impressed by how fluid and powerful Ticket Turtle is.  I love talking with organizations, helping them achieve their goals, and hearing them get so excited about what the system can do for them... often things they'd never even thought of! It's great."
 

Jennifer Gaddy
Vice President of Sales
"The perfect pair of jeans you get on sale, a great book you read over and over, the corner cafe with fantastic burgers for cheap. Ticket Turtle belongs on a list like this.... "
 

Bob Vinatieri
Sales
"The performing arts teach language, communicate emotions, and explore morality unlike any other medium. I see my job at Ticket Turtle as enhancing the financial health and vitality of community arts groups throughout North America."
 

Heather Blackbird
Human Resources & Sales
"We've put our brains, hearts, and hair loss into Ticket Turtle. Everyday, with every theatre that joins us, I feel more energy knowing that we're reaching the people we intended to reach. Ticketing in the Arts is one more place that can be reclaimed from corporate nonsense, and together, theatre by theatre, festival by festival, performance by performance, we'll do it!"
