FAQs

Q: How is ticketing handled?
A: Ticketing is by general admission. There is no assigned seating - as such, we cannot guarantee that large parties will be seated together, especially if the show is sold out. We recommend arriving when the doors open for the highest likelihood of sitting together.

Q: What time do the doors open?
A: The doors open at 9:45 am.

Q: Is this event family-friendly?
A: This event is for the young and the young-at-heart - all are welcome! All patrons, regardless of age, require a ticket. The acting workshop portion of the morning is geared toward kids ages 4-10; participation by younger audience members is up to the discretion of Portland Stage's educators.

Q: Is Watts Hall an accessible venue?
A: Yes, it is! While the auditorium is located on the second floor, we do have an ADA-compliant elevator available to anyone who needs it. We also have an accessible restroom. The doorways and hallways are nice and wide to accommodate mobility aids.

Q: Will tickets be available at the door?
A: Maybe. We don't reserve any tickets for door sales and our events often sell out in advance. If you want to guarantee entrance, we recommend purchasing your tickets in advance. We will update our Facebook page regarding the availability of door tickets the day of the event. If tickets are available at the door, children 4-10 will be priced at $20/each. Additional adult and 3 and under tickets will remain $5/each. We accept cash, cards, and local checks (pro-tip: plan to pay cash or check to avoid a $2/ticket service charge).

Q: Will food and drink be available for purchase?
A: Yes! A selection of concessions and non-alcoholic drinks will be available for purchase.

Q: Where should I park?
A: Plenty of free parking is available behind the business block on the side of Rt. 1 opposite Watts Hall.

Q: Who should I talk to if I have any other questions?
A: You can send an email to our Managing Director, Kendray Rodriguez at wattshallcommunityarts@gmail.com
