Ticket Office Policies
In Case of Rain
“Shakespeare-under-the-Stars” sometimes necessitates a poncho or a light wrap, so come prepared. The Engelstad Shakespeare Theatre is an outdoor space, with limited covering over the audience and stage. Performances will continue during inclement weather, possibly after short delays. We will make every effort to complete the performance, even if it is raining. Umbrellas are not allowed, but rain ponchos are appropriate. If a performance is cancelled before intermission, a credit will be issued to all guests in attendance at the performance. The Festival will not issue credits if the show is canceled after intermission.
Children Under Six
Children under the age of six years old (including infants and babes-in-arms) are not admitted to Festival plays. Also, some of our plays contain material that you may not consider suitable for your children. Please familiarize yourself with the plays before ordering tickets. Child care for those up to the age of ten is provided during all plays, but not during other Festival activities. Our professionally-staffed, safe, and state-licensed facility is located at 123 S. 300 West Street. The cost per play is $10 per child. All child care must be reserved through the Ticket Office by calling 800-PLAYTIX or going online.
