Accessibility

• The outdoor surface parking lot just south of the theatre has accessible parking spots located right outside our lobby doors.
• The covered parking garage on the corner of 55th Street and S. Ellis Avenue has accessible parking on the ground levels and an elevator. Simply take a ticket from the machine upon entrance, and use the S. Ellis Avenue exit gate after the show. For 30 minutes following the performance, the S. Ellis Avenue gate will automatically raise when your car approaches for a free and easy exit. It is not necessary to insert your ticket upon exiting at the gate. If you stay for a post-show discussion, please ask the House Manager for a validation ticket.
