Preparing for Your Visit to the Citadel Theatre

ELECTRONIC DEVICES: No doubt we have all been distracted by a cell phone, pager or watch alarm ringing or lighting up when attending the theatre. For every performance which is unmarred by one of these distractions, we will donate $5 to the Actors' Fund of Canada.

RECORDING DEVICES: Video or still cameras, and all other recording devices are not permitted at any of the productions.

ALLERGY ALERT: For the safety of those with allergies, please refrain from the use of perfumes or scented products before coming to the theatre.

HEARING ADVANCEMENT HEADSETS: We offer headsets to patrons with hearing difficulties. Ask the usher at the door to the theatre. These are provided free of charge. You will be asked to leave your driver's license as a deposit until the headset is returned at the end of the performance. Available in the Shoctor and Maclab Theatres.

LATE SEATING: We endeavour to minimize the inconvenience to our patrons and the actors when seating latecomers. If you arrive late for a performance, you will be seated at the first appropriate moment in the designated latecomer seating. You are welcome to move to your assigned seat at intermission. If you must leave the theatre during a performance you will not be allowed to return to your seat until intermission.

CHILDREN: The Citadel Theatre does not allow babes-in-arms or children under 5 years of age into our theatres. Please see individual play descriptions for specific age recommendations. A Christmas Carol is not suitable for children under 7 years of age.
