Tickets are sold subject to availability. Exchanges are available by phone or email during regular business hours.

Print-at-Home tickets can be displayed on any handheld device, such as phone or tablet, or can be printed at home. Print-at-Home tickets can also be managed directly within ACT online accounts.

Print-at-Home tickets can also be accessed from ticket purchase and account screens on our website or by contacting the Box Office.

Will Call
Will call is available for all performances. If tickets are inaccessible or have been lost, contact the Box Office for reprints.
