What happens if I'm late to a show?
The house opens twenty minutes prior to the performance for seat selection. Due to capacity issues and performance requirements there is no late seating. 

If you are unable to be seated, please talk to the Theater Wit Box Office staff immediately. While all ticket sales are non-refundable and non-exchangeable, the Theater Wit Box Office issue vouchers (see below) that you can use to see a subsequent performance. Alternatively, you can convert your ticket purchase into a tax-deductible donation if your schedule doesn’t allow you to return.
