Subscriber Ticket Exchange


Only subscribers may exchange tickets for another performance of the same production, subject to availability. Comparable seating cannot be guaranteed. Tickets must be exchanged no later than 24 hours prior to a performance date. Tickets cannot be exchanged on the day of a performance or after a performance has occurred.

To exchange by phone:
Call Phone Charge at 215-574- 3550 ext. 2, 10am – 10pm, 7 days a week, starting August 16, 2009 and throughout the season. All exchange fees are charged at the time you make your exchange.

Please note: There is a convenience fee of $4.00 per ticket for all telephone exchanges in addition to any applicable upgrade fees (listed below).

To help us provide you with the best possible service, please have your subscriber account number, your current tickets, your preferred exchange dates and a calendar in front of you when you call.

Exchange Upgrade Fees:
There are NO exchange fees if you exchange your tickets for the same section and same series at the box office, subject to availability. This is a FREE service for our subscribers only.

Please note: The actual discounted price you paid per show is printed on your ticket. If you exchange tickets into a different performance that is higher priced, your exchange upgrade fee will be only the difference in the price. Review the dates on the schedule in this handbook. The last two columns will show your discount subscription price. Senior/Youth Discount and College Discount are not valid for any Friday or Saturday Evenings or Sunday Matinees.

Once you have exchanged your original tickets, they are immediately resold to someone else. The barcode on your original ticket becomes invalid and you will be issued new tickets with a valid barcode. Please do not arrive at the theatre on your original performance date after doing a ticket exchange; your original seats will not be available. Replacement tickets with a valid barcode are honored over original tickets that you exchanged.
