How do I buy tickets?
Quantum Theatre uses an outside ticket service,Showclix, to process subscription and ticket orders. You may purchase tickets online, or by calling 1-888-718-4253. Their hours of operation are Monday-Friday, 9:00 am – 9:00 pm. They are closed on Saturday and Sundays.
What is your seating policy? Can I choose my seat?
All our performances have open seating. The box office will open 1 hour prior to performance time, and the house will open approximately 30 minutes prior to performance time. There will be no late seating.
What forms of payment will the ticket service accept?
Your advance ticket sale purchase can be made safely and securely with your MasterCard, VISA, American Express or Discover card online or via the phone. Cash, Checks, and Credit Cards are accepted at the door.
How will I receive my tickets?
Tickets will be emailed directly from Showclix. You can print your tickets from the email, however we will always have your name at the door.
Can I buy tickets at the door?
There is no guarantee that tickets will be available at the door. However, if tickets are available, they can be purchased at the box office, which opens 1 hour prior to performance time. For fastest service at the door, payment by cash or check is preferred. There will be no late seating.
Can I just make a reservation now and pay later?
Quantum does not accept unpaid reservations. To guarantee a seat, you must purchase your ticket in advance. Please remember there is no late seating and ono guarentees that tickets will be available at the door.
Where should I park?
Parking varies by performance location. Check the show description for the play you are attending, where parking specifics for that play will be listed.
What do I do when I arrive at the performance site?
Please always check in with the box office, even if you already have your tickets with you. We do this so we will know when all patrons have arrived, as we do not seat latecomers. Follow the "Q" signs to the box office.
What happens if, due to unforeseen circumstances, I arrive late for a performance?
There is no late seating at Quantum Theatre. We do this because of the intimate design of many of our performance spaces, in order to prevent disruptions to both the actors on stage and the audience members already seated.
What do I do if I can't attend my scheduled performance?
There are no refunds or exchanges on non-subscription tickets.
Subscribers may exchange their tickets for another performance of the same production, as long as the exchange is made prior to your scheduled attendance date. This can be done by phoning the Showclix at 1-888-718-4253. There is no charge for this service unless you are exchanging into a higher-priced performance day.
Are refunds available?
Refunds are not available. Performances are rarely cancelled. If for any reason this occurs, a performance will be scheduled for those previously scheduled to attend.
What is your inclement weather policy?
Performances are rarely cancelled. For outdoor performances, a decision will not be made until very close to performance time. We will most often choose to delay the start time rather than cancel a performance. If you have questions or concerns (and bearing in mind the amount of time required for your own travel to the site), you may call 412.362-1713 beginning 30 mins prior to performance time for an update. As long as the show takes place, there are no refunds or exchanges.
What happens if a performance is cancelled? How will I be notified?
You will be notified by phone. We will call the number you have provided to Showclix at the time of your ticket purchase. If the show is cancelled by Quantum, a performance will be scheduled for those previously scheduled to attend.
Is there a dress code?
