Ticket Prices
All tickets include a $1 per ticket facility surcharge.
Payment
Credit card information for the full amount must
accompany each order. Orders are processed upon
receipt, and credit cards are charged the day your
order is processed. All orders are subject to a $4
handling fee and $1 mail delivery charge.
Tickets
Due to fire codes, everyone, including infants, must
have a ticket. In consideration of others, do not bring
children under the age of three to major shows. There
will be no refunds for individual ticket sales. Because
touring events occasionally reschedule, programs,
artists, and performance dates are subject to change. In
the unlikely event of a change of date or cancellation,
the change will be announced as early as possible, and
an attempt will be made to contact all ticket holders.
Box Office Hours
The Fine Arts Center Box Office is open from 11 a.m.–5 p.m.
Monday–Friday. For weekday performances in the
main theatre, the box office will remain open from
11 a.m. through the performance. For Saturday and
Sunday performances in the main theatre or at the
Weber Center for the Performing Arts, the box office
will open two hours prior to the first performance
and will remain open through the performance. For
performances in the black box theatre or recital
hall, the box office will open one hour prior to the
performance in the lobby of the respective venue.
Exchanges
24
Tickets may be exchanged for another performance of
the same production. Exchanges must be completed
prior to the date of the originally scheduled
performance, and an exchange fee of $2 per order will
apply. This exchange fee will be waived for current
season ticket holders.
Accessibility
Wheelchair seating is available for patrons with a
disability. Notify the box office when purchasing
tickets so proper arrangements can be made.
Assistive listening devices are available at no charge.
Call or visit the box office for more information.
Fragrances
If you use perfume or scented products, apply them sparingly
in consideration of the sensitivities of other patrons.
