Ways to Save

Spotlight Pass (Season Tickets)

A great option for busy families, a Spotlight Pass is like purchasing season tickets without committing to a set schedule. The flexible pass includes 10 tickets for any mainstage show in our season. You may use all your passes on a single production or spread them out over any combination of shows throughout the season (restrictions apply–see below). With a Spotlight Pass, it’s all up to you!

How it Works:


Spotlight Pass Benefits:

  • Enjoy Priority Seating – Spotlight Pass holders are invited to enter the theatre first to select the seats of their choice.
  • All Mainstage Shows Included – Spotlight passes may be redeemed for any of the mainstage shows in our season (restrictions apply–see below).
  • Flexible Scheduling – See a single show or any number of shows you choose.
  • No Service Fees – There are no service or convenience fees when you purchase a Spotlight Pass.

 

Please Note:

  • Reservations are made on a first come, first served basis. We encourage Spotlight Pass holders to call early for best availability.
  • Priority Seating is available to Spotlight Pass holders checked with the Box Office when the house opens for seating. Reserved seating is not available.
  • Due to the nature of live theatre, play selection, performance schedule,  and ticket pricing are subject to change.

 

Restrictions:

Spotlight Pass packages are only able to be applied to Mainstage shows. Coterie After Dark, Coterie Sprouts, and co-productions with other venues are not eligible. Specific restrictions for 26-27 Spotlight Passes include:
