General policy

With the exception of cancellation of a performance ALL SALES ARE FINAL.

As is standard for most live performances, concerts, or sporting events events no refunds will be given for any tickets once purchased. ALL SALES ARE FINAL.

Latecomer/No Show Policy

Any unclaimed tickets 15 minutes after the start of showtime will be released for resale.
Latecomers will be seated at the House Manager’s discretion, and may have to watch on a video monitor in front of the box office until intermission.

Children and Live Performances

Children under the age of 5 are not admitted to Totem Pole Playhouse. Children of all ages are admitted to our children’s and theatre camp public performances. Please carefully consider whether a performance is appropriate for your child before planning to attend. Disruptive patrons, including children, will not be allowed to remain in the theatre.

Food and Drink

No outside food or drink is permitted inside the theatre. We ask patrons to unwrap or remove candy or gum from wrappers before the performance so as not to distract the performers or anyone seated around you.

Smoking

No smoking (tobacco or other substances) or vaping is permitted within 25 feet of the box office, bathroom, patio, or any door.

Service Animals

Patrons who require the assistance of a service animal must notify the box office before attending a performance. Our wheelchair and companion seats are designated for patrons with service animals. No non-service animals are permitted in the theatre.

Accessibility

Totem Pole Playhouse is fully accessible for mobility impaired patrons. Our walkways and aisles provide enough space for the passage of walkers and wheelchairs.

Parking

Totem Pole Playhouse has several spaces designated for handicapped parking.

Wheelchairs

Totem Pole Playhouse is wheelchair accessible. Please view our seating chart for wheelchair seating locations. Patrons who require assistance are encouraged to arrive early and ask an usher for assistance before a performance.

Assisted Hearing Devices

Free infrared assisted listening devices are available at the box office prior to the performance by exchanging a license or credit card. No advance reservations for assisted listening devices are required.

Photos

Photography, audio and video recording inside of the theatre is never allowed as it is a distraction to those around you and a danger to the performers. We do not permit photos or audio and video recording of the stage before, during, or after any performance as it is prohibited by law. Patrons who violate this policy will be asked to delete photos/video/audio from cameras and electronic devices or will be required to relinquish all photos/video/audio. During a performance, you may be asked to leave at the discretion of the staff.

Mobile phones and electronic devices

Please silence or turn off all electronic devices, including cell phones, beepers, tablets, and watch alarms. We encourage you to share your experience at the Totem Pole Playhouse via social media, but please refrain from doing so or texting during performances; the glow from your device is distracting to the performers and the patrons seated around you.

Lost and Found

Lost and Found articles are kept in the Box Office for 30 days. Please contact the Box Office at (717) 352-2164 option 1 to inquire about lost items.

Emergency Notice

The exit indicated by a red exit sign nearest to the seat you occupy is the shortest route to the outside. In the event of fire or other emergency, please walk to that exit; please do not run. Patrons using wheelchairs should use the house lower left or right entrance.

Inclement Weather Policy

If a performance is cancelled, we will try to move patrons to another performance subject to availability, otherwise we will refund ticket charges.
If patrons are unable to attend a performance due to inclement weather, we will try to move patrons to another performance (subject to availability), but there will be no refunds if a performance is not cancelled.
