Please leave a detailed message on voice mail. -- Your Name, and the correct spelling We will hold your tickets for you at the door. Please come to the theatre at one half hour prior to the performance. Ask for the tickets in your name and you can pick them up and pay for them at that time.

Q: Is this show appropriate for my 1 year old? 12 year old? Q: Do I need to use my credit card to hold my tickets? Q: How long is the show? Q: Does my 3 year old need a ticket? They will sit in my lap. Q: I want to sit close to the front. Where are my seats? Q: What time do the doors to the theatre open? Q: What happens if I'm late? Will you hold my tickets? Q: Can I pick my tickets up in advance?
A: The age appropriateness really depends upon the child. Some 1 year olds will enjoy watching the coloured lights, hearing the music and seeing the movement on the stage, while other wee ones of that age are frightened of the noise. For older kids, it depends on how much they enjoy seeing live theatre performances. Our children's shows don't "talk down" to kids, however, your child may have reached that stage when they are "too cool" to come to a play geared for younger audiences. Use your best judgement when deciding what age group to bring to the show.
A: No. We accept cash and checks only. We reserve tickets on the "honour system." If you need to cancel your reservation, please let us know!
A: The performance is about 1 hour long.
A: Yes. Admission is paid for everyone who attends.
A: We've moved to a general seating arrangement, which means you may sit wherever you like in the theatre. The earlier you get here, the better seat you'll get. We plan our children's plays so there isn't a "bad seat" in the house. For grammar school groups, seating charts are arranged in advance and faxed or mailed to you several days prior to the performance.
A: We open the house for seating at 1/2 hour before the performance begins.
A: If the performance is close to selling out, we will begin to sell the tickets of people who have reserved but not picked up at 10 minutes before curtain. If there is a line at the box office at that time, we certainly do wait until the line is clear before selling reserved tickets.
A: Because we are a small community college theatre, we don't keep a regular box office open on a daily basis. If you wish to pick up your tickets prior to show date, you'll need to make advance arrangements and bring exact change for your tickets.
We sell popcorn, soda and baked goods in the lobby of the Performing Arts Center before the show on Saturdays only. The line at the concession stand can get rather long. This is another reason to come early. You may bring your goodies into the theatre. Please be respectul of the auditorium and place your trash in the garbage cans located in the lobby. Popcorn sells for 75 cents a bag, soda is 50 cents a cup and baked goods are generally 50 cents per item. Flash photography is not allowed during the performance as the flash can disturb the actors. Videotaping of performances is not allowed per our agreement with the playwright. Our own television department may videotape the performance for use in public relations materials. This recording will not be sold or distributed to individuals outside the college.
