Late seating
Performances begin promptly—we strongly recommend that you plan to arrive 30 minutes before your scheduled performance to allow for transit, traffic, and parking delays. See more information about transit and parking at our Your Visit page. Latecomers and guests who leave the theater during the performance will be (re)seated at the House Manager’s discretion for your safety, and to minimize disruption to the performance and your fellow audience members. We cannot offer refunds or exchanges for late arrivals or missed performances.
