Despite the work that goes into each position, each Waco Hall staff member pointed to others as the essential pieces in Sing’s success. Spring senior Jillian Herman noted the efforts of the performers themselves, Brazoria senior Isabella Davis the dedication of professional Waco Hall staff and Plano junior Oliver Dillard the importance of stagehands. All three conveyed Sing as a tradition not marked by performances or ticket sales, but by the cooperation of all parts in one machine.

According to Plano junior Oliver Dillard, a Waco Hall Ticketing Office staff member, the ticketing office allocates a set number of tickets to administration each year. The seats are usually in the center orchestra, and many are still unclaimed by the time Sing comes along. These tickets open to the public an hour before each show, so students can come early to secure a last-minute ticket.
