Theatrical Property

Chubb’s definition of theatrical property includes any property used in the production, such as props, sets, wardrobe, sound and lighting equipment, mechanical and computer equipment, and backstage property. We value property on a replacement cost basis.

Insurance applies whether items are onstage, at a rehearsal space or in transit. Protection begins before the show opens and lasts through the final curtain call.

Our Theatrical Package policy gives producers the ability to protect the personal effects of all employees when those items are in the theater or otherwise in the care, custody or control of the production company.

Performance Disruption

Chubb offers the broad business income protection to meet the needs of large stage and touring productions.When the show can’t go on as scheduled, not only is revenue lost, but the production may be hit with extra expenses to get back on track.

Our Performance Disruption insurance protects against losses resulting from cancellation, interruption or postponement of one or more performances due to unexpected circumstances beyond our insured’s control. This includes the company’s inability to open a new production as scheduled. Typical industry business income policies only insure losses caused by damage to insured property.
