Season Ticket Members get exclusive access to exchange tickets online up to 24 hours before their showtime for free by visiting the My Account page in our website.  As a Season Subscriber, if you exchange to a lower priced ticket, you'll receive a credit that can be used for additional tickets to the same production only and that will expire at the conclusion of this production if not used. Tickets exchanged into an upgraded location or higher priced date/time may increase the price of the new ticket. 

We now offer same-day exchanges for a per-ticket fee up to three hours before showtime. Same-day exchanges are not available online and must be made over the phone at 213.972.4444 or in person at the box office.

Please refrain from wearing strong perfumes and cologne. Many people are allergic to heavy scents. 

To minimize disruption, patrons not seated when the performance begins will be asked to wait in the lobby until an appropriate seating break. Latecomers may also be given alternate seats until intermission. 

If your tickets are lost or stolen, please contact Audience Services at 213.628.2772 to arrange for replacements.

Flash photography can be dangerous to performers and is very distracting to audiences. Photography and any other type of recording device are unlawful, unless authorized by Center Theatre Group. Your use of a ticket constitutes acknowledgment of willingness to appear in authorized photographs and video in public areas of The Music Center and the Kirk Douglas Theatre and releases Center Theatre Group, The Music Center, and all others from liability resulting from the use of such photographs.
