Weapons of any kind, regardless of permit, are not allowed in the theater. The list of prohibited items includes, but is not limited to: firearms, knives, batons, mace, pepper spray, brass knuckles, Tasers, or any other items that security personnel deem dangerous or threatening to public safety. By tendering a ticket and entering the theater, guests consent to such searches and waive any related claims.

We appreciate your cooperation.

We want to make sure you don’t miss any of the fun so please leave yourself plenty of time for travel, parking, waiting for public transportation, navigating city streets, security screenings and bathroom visits prior to the performance. Theater doors open 30 minutes before show time and we recommend you arrive at the theater no later than 15 minutes before show time. Large groups should plan to arrive even earlier.

Parking is available for $15 cash in the lot adjacent to the theater. To avoid delays, it's probably best to arrive 30 minutes before show time. If you drive a bus because you’re running a tour or because you don't worry about gas prices, it'll cost you $25 to park. That's $25 per bus for the caravan set.View the map.
