We recommend arriving 15-30 minutes before show time.

During the summer, we host a free pre-show talk before every Mainstage performance. These “Prologues” begin 45 minutes before show time and will be announced in the lobby before they start. Please feel free to join us for these interesting conversations with theatre professionals! You do not need to have a ticket to the performance to attend.

Tickets may be purchased in person, over the phone or online. Ticketing fees apply regardless of purchase method. Click HERE for Box Office information or to purchase online.

You can add multiple performances to your online cart by selecting your tickets/seats for one performance, then viewing your cart and clicking “continue shopping.” This button will return you to the full list of upcoming events for which you can purchase additional tickets. You can always contact our Box Office for assistance to complete your requests over the phone or in person.

While the fee and the ticket price are indicated separately in your purchase, we advertise our ticket prices with the fees included so you are not surprised at checkout. We want to provide the best and most convenient box office service for our patrons. To make that happen, it requires a considerable investment in both staffing and ticketing technologies. The ticketing fee covers that investment. The fee applies to all transactions: online, over the phone, or in person.

If you ordered your tickets online, you may print them out at home! If you are not able to print them or if you ordered them over the phone, they are printed and ready for you at the Will Call window inside the lobby of the theatre. We recommend arriving 30 minutes in advance of show time in order to retrieve your tickets and find your seat.

We strive to respond as quickly as possible. However, on high-volume days, it is not unusual for our Box Office staff to receive as many as 20 calls in the space of 10 minutes! We pride ourselves on giving each and every call and in-person visit our full attention so please be patient.

Please note: during the hour prior to a show, our top priority is getting patrons into the show at hand in a timely fashion.  If you call during that time in regards to another matter, we may ask that we return your call after the current performance is up and running.

Some coupons work online, but not all. If a coupon is meant to work online, then you will be given an online code and explicit instructions on how to apply it in a sale. If it still is not working, please give us a call and we will work to resolve the problem for you.

For example: Ithaca Guide to Being Local Buy One Get One as well as ticket vouchers, Bravo Bucks and Family Fun Passes will NOT work online.

Tickets may be exchanged for a $7 fee up to 24 hours before the performance. Subscribers may exchange their tickets as often as necessary for free. Get your subscription HERE to receive this perk along with many others!

The Hangar Theatre does not issue refunds for any ticket purchases. Ticket purchasers are encouraged to carefully review the details of their order before proceeding with their purchase.

Previews are shows performed in front of an audience prior to their official opening. The purpose of preview performances is to give the director and creative team a chance to experience the production with an audience present, while adjustments can still be made. Some theatres offer several previews to audiences prior to opening night. This summer, the Hangar will offer one Thursday preview for each production.

We do not recommend bringing children ages 5 and under to any Mainstage production.  KIDDSTUFF performances are designed for children of all ages but are up to the discretion of the parents or legal guardians.

(Pay) What You Will is a sponsored program that focuses on providing access to theatre for patrons of all financial backgrounds.

These tickets can be requested by filling out our PWYW Ticket Request Form or by calling the Box Office during working hours. Tickets are limited and sold based on a first come, first serve basis.
