If you are unable to attend a performance, please return your tickets to the Straz Center's Ticket Office at least 48 hours (week days only) in advance of the show and we will offer them to a charitable organization.

All guests, regardless of age, must have a ticket.

To ensure optimum enjoyment for all guests, we strongly recommend that children under the age of 5 not attend shows other than those in the Kid Time and Wee Folk Series and those designated as toddler friendly. Broadway shows are not toddler friendly. Additionally, even for children over the age of 5, many shows would not be enjoyable or suitable. Some shows contain mature content, language or themes. Parents are best qualified to determine what is appropriate for their children. To help you make an informed decision, we encourage you to seek additional information. If you still have a question, please contact us and we'll try to help. We do urge that parents consider their children's interests, maturity and attention span, and also the rights of people seated around them. We want the theater to be a good experience for everyone. Please note that anyone making a disturbance during a show will be asked to leave — no matter what their age.

Some Toddler Friendly shows may offer lap tickets. Individual show policies for lap seating vary. If purchasing tickets for a child under 18 months old, ask if the show has a lap ticket policy and what it is.
