Performance cancellations due to inclement weather or other circumstances are very rare. When a performance must be cancelled, we will make every attempt to contact you by email and/or phone to make arrangements for an alternate date. Please make sure we always have your up-to-date contact information! We will also post updates on our website and Facebook page on days when inclement weather is present.

Please note: Act II Playhouse will not offer refunds if a performance has taken place.

Please be assured that your tickets will not be resold if you are late for a show! Latecomers will be seated at the first appropriate break that allows for the least disruption for the actors, as well as the rest of the audience. Depending on the location of your ticketed seats, you may be asked to sit in the most easily accessible seats available at the moment. (If there is an intermission you may move to your ticketed seats.) Please notify the Box Office at 215.654.0200 if you know you will be late to a performance so the House Manager can be prepared.

Subscribers get the best seats and best discounts. Subscribers receive first choice of seats in early spring and single ticket purchases are opened after subscriptions are filled and seats assigned. Seating requests are taken on a first-come, first-served basis and in our intimate space, there is no such thing as a “bad seat!” To learn more about the benefits of being a subscriber, or for more information on the season, please call the Box Office at 215.654.0200 Monday-Saturday, from 2:00-6:00 PM.

Refunds
Act II Playhouse does not offer refunds for ticket purchases, but we understand that plans change for any number of reasons. Audience Services is happy to help you find a solution should you have tickets you cannot use. Please give us a call at 215-654-0200, Monday through Saturday, from 2PM to 6PM. You can also email us at info@act2.org.

Exchanges and Upgrades:
We offer exchanges to both Subscribers and Single Ticket Purchasers. Please understand that we cannot offer exchanges for events that have passed. Subscribers and Single Ticket Purchasers must call the Box Office at 215-654-0200 at least 2 hours before the start time of your event to exchange your tickets.

Subscribers – One of the benefits of being a Subscriber is unlimited free exchanges on your tickets! There is no fee to exchange subscription tickets. However, if you are exchanging into a higher-priced performance, the following upgrade fees apply per ticket:

  • No fee to exchange into the same price type as your original subscription ticket
  • $5 per ticket to change from a Preview to a Weekday performance
  • $5 per ticket to move from a Weekday to a Weekend performance
  • $10 per ticket to upgrade from a Preview to a Weekend performance.

Single Ticket Buyers – There is a $3 per ticket exchange fee, and if you are exchanging into a higher-priced performance you will also pay the difference between the original ticket price and the price of the new ticket. Please note that we do not credit or refund the difference if an exchange is made into a lower-priced performance by either a subscriber or a single ticket buyer.

Ticket Donations
If you have tickets that you cannot use and don’t wish to exchange, we welcome the donation of tickets back to The Playhouse to resell. We will send you an acknowledgement letter for your records. All donations to the theatre are very much appreciated and allow us to continue our mission of producing live theatre here in the heart of Ambler.
