The FBPH Policies


What will the Playhouse and Tavern do to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for patrons?

While we are not requiring proof of vaccination or masking at The Playhouse at this time, we honor and respect all audience members who choose to wear a mask for their own safety and encourage all unmasked patrons to be respectful when interacting with staff and volunteers who will be masked for union and health regulations. We reserve the right to update this policy, should the need arise.

The Playhouse will provide hand sanitizer in various locations on the property and will have masks available for patrons, should they wish to utilize them.


EQUITY, DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION

The Forestburgh Playhouse is proud to affirm and accelerate its ongoing commitment to equality, diversity and inclusivity, ensuring that our company, in all aspects, reflects our dedication to social and racial equality. As a united Forestburgh Playhouse, we promise to promote an environment that is truly equitable as an ongoing and intentional process of self-examination, accountability and action.

Subject to availability, tickets may be exchanged up to 48 hours in advance by calling the Box Office; after that time there are no exchanges allowed. A $3/ticket exchange fee would apply for all except subscribers.

GIFT CERTIFICATES

Plan ahead! Please inform the recipient of a Forestburgh Playhouse Gift Certificate not to wait until the last minute to redeem their Gift Certificate.  Each Gift Certificate has a clearly marked expiration date at the bottom of the Gift Certificate. Gift Certificates cannot be redeemed after the expiration date.  In addition, seating is subject to availability and not guaranteed until the order is placed. If a particular performance is sold out, Gift Certificate redeemers must choose a different performance.  Some shows may be very popular and sell out in advance. Gift Certificate redeemers cannot be accommodated if a performance is sold out. No refunds for Gift Certificates are permitted at the Forestburgh Playhouse. If you are unable to use your Gift Certificate, you may transfer it to a friend—your friend must present the Gift Certificate at the Box Office in order to redeem it.

LATE SEATING POLICY

Patrons arriving late to a performance will be seated in a convenient location at a pre-determined/appropriate point in Act I or at intermission. Patrons arriving late to a performance are not guaranteed seating in their reserved seats and will be seated in open/available seats that are easy to access during Act I.  Patrons can then utilize their reserved seats for Act II.  Patrons are encouraged to call the Box Office to notify the Playhouse of their late arrival.

CELL PHONE/DEVICE POLICY

The use of cell phones, tablets, and other wireless devices is distracting to other patrons, hampers audience members’ enjoyment of the production and can be a danger to performers onstage or a hindrance to their execution of a performance. Excepting Medical Professionals that are on-call or Press, Patrons are required to turn off their cell phones, tablets and other wireless devices before the performance begins.  Patrons that do not comply may be requested to leave the performance and shall not receive a refund.
