Granville Island Stage starting October 2007.)
Q. How do I pick up
my tickets?
A. Please pick up your tickets from either the Stanley Industrial Alliance
Stage or the Granville Island Stage box office
at least 30 minutes prior to your performance start time.

Q. Why can’t I choose the ‘Mail’ option
for my tickets?
If the performance you have booked is within 10 days of the date you
booked, you cannot chose the ‘Mail’ option to receive your tickets. Within

mail them and, to avoid inconvenience, we will hold your tickets at the
box office for pick up before your performance.

We understand that emergencies arise and you will not always be able to
reach us.
Q. What if I lose my tickets?

We will replace lost tickets at no charge at the box office. We do require
that you have proof of purchase. Call 604.687.1644 or visit our box office
to have your tickets reprinted.
Q. Can I bring children?
A. We welcome guests of all ages, but acknowledge that very young
children can be disruptive to the performance and to other patrons.
Children should be able to sit quietly throughout the performance.
Children unable to do so, along with their accompanying adult, will be
asked by an usher to leave the auditorium or may be asked not to attend
the performance. Unless the programming is specific to children and family
audiences, please use discretion in choosing to bring a child to a
performance. Every patron, regardless of age, requires a ticket. For
family shows such as Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, a limited
number of booster seats are available at the Stanley Industrial Alliance
Stage. Children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult.
Babes in arms are not permitted in the theatre.
Q. Where do I park?
A. At Granville Island, parking is free for a three-hour interval during
the day and is unrestricted after 7 pm. There are pay parking stalls on
the island for longer periods or when free parking is unavailable. At the
Stanley Industrial Alliance Stage, metered parking is available on
Granville Street and the surrounding areas. There are also several
parkades within walking distance.

Q. What if I arrive after the performance has started?
A.
Whenever possible, latecomers will be seated at the back of the theatre
during appropriate intervals in the performance to avoid disturbing the
actors and other audience members. Latecomers may move to their assigned
seats during intermission, but assigned seats are not guaranteed past
curtain time. Please allow for ample time to park, and remember that there
is often a line-up at the box office in the hour prior to showtime.
Q. Can I avoid the
line-up at the bar during intermission?
A. Yes. Prior to the show, pick up an “Enjoy Every Minute of Intermission”
form at our box office or the bar. List the beverage(s) of your choice and
present it to the bartender for purchase. At intermission, your beverage(s)
will be ready for you.
Q. Can I book a
taxi to pick me up when the show ends?
A. Taxi reservations may be made upon your arrival to the theatre. Please
leave your name with an usher, who will be happy to contact the cab
company of your choice.
Q. Can I get a
refund for unused tickets?
A. Tickets are non-refundable; however, you may request a tax receipt for
the value of unused tickets by returning them to the box office at least
24 hours prior to your scheduled performance. Please contact the box
office at 604.687.1644.
Q. Can
I change my performance date after booking?
Yes, but conditions do apply. You can change your reservation for a
performance on the same show only and you must call or visit the box
office at least 24 hours before your original performance date. If you
purchased single tickets, you will be charged a $6 fee per ticket to
change the date. Season ticket holders always receive free ticket exchange
privileges. We cannot guarantee that seats will be available and it is
highly likely that your seats will not be the same as your original
booking.
Q. Do
I get a discount on food at the Backstage Lounge?
Yes. All ticket holders are entitled to a 15% discount on their food bill
at the Backstage Lounge. The 15% discount only applies on the day of your
performance and you will have to show your ticket to receive the discount.
Just let your server know that you are seeing the show and would like to
take advantage of the 15% discount offered. This discount will only apply
to the food portion of your bill and does not include beverages, taxes, or
gratuities. We recommend that you arrive at least 90 minutes before your
performance to ensure you have enough time to enjoy your meal before
seeing the show.
Q. How can I help support the Arts Club Theatre Company?
A. As a charity, we rely
on the contributions we receive from community-minded individuals like you
who value the work we do on our stages, on tour, and in the community.
Your donation as a Friend or a member of the Artistic Director’s Circle is
critical to our success.
How does your gift work? We invest 100% of donations in the production of our plays, our work with new play development, and our commitment to youth in the community. Please consider making a donation today. You can donate online as part of your ticket purchase, as a separate transaction, or by contacting our Fund Development office at 604.687.5315. Tax receipts will be issued promptly.
Q. What if I have more questions?
A.
Call our box office at 604.687.1644, look online at the various menu
options, or drop by our box office during the hours listed above.
Gentle Reminders
-
It is very important to turn off wristwatch alarms, cell phones, and beepers for the duration of the show. If you are concerned about missing an emergency call, please leave your name or device and seat location with an usher and we will alert you if a call comes through.
-
Please be modest with your use of fragrances as some patrons may have allergies.
-
Please wait until intermission or after the performance to discuss the show. (Even whispers carry!)
-
We request that you refrain from eating or unwrapping candy in the theatre, as it causes distractions for others.
-
If you have a complaint about another guest, please tell an usher or the Guest Services Manager rather than approaching the person yourself. We will be happy to address concerns on your behalf.
Please contact the Guest Services Manager at 604.731.4687 ext. 403 if you have suggestions on how we can serve you better.
