Please leave a message on the answering machine clearly stating your name (spelling helps), the number of tickets you need, what type each ticket is (i.e. adult, student & senior), a phone number at which you can be reached, and any seating preferences.
Please note, for reserved seating shows, we will not accept seating preferences via telephone as we cannot control online reservations for assigned seating.
