Mulberry Evening

Sep 28, 2022

I've had so many wonderful experiences at Geva but my #1 will always be going to their A Christmas Story performance! I was just a child and I sat in an aisle seat. When the performance was over and the actors walked down the aisles the man who played Scrooge slowed down to shake my hand. As a child just witnessing the magic of theatre, that was like having my hand shook by Father Christmas! 😭❀️ That was the start of my love for theatre and I still go every year that I'm able to. 5/5 doesn't do them justice. Geva theatre isn't just in the business of theatre, they're in the business of making dreams.

We enjoyed the marvelous production of Jane Eyre on 9.21. Congrats to Geva’s new Artistic Director Elizabeth Williamson for an outstanding debut production. We look forward to the 50th Anniversary season.

I think it would be better to go to the website. But I did see it on Sunday night and it wasn't full. They also had the screens out in the lobby showing local holocaust survivors with some info. It was interesting.

WOULD A NEGATIVE HOME TEST BE ENOUGH PROOF TO BE ADMITTED TO A SHOW?

Do I make a reservation for dinner prior to the performance?

Johanna Keeler | Oct 18, 2019
Judith Hannon | Oct 18, 2019

No. Not necessary. We usually arrive 2 hrs before performance, eat and drink, and then attend prologue, which is a 30 minute Geva-led discussion about the performance. That leaves another 30 minutes before the play begins. If you're not into prologue, plan to arrive 90 minutes before the play begins.

How do i buy the two tickets for $90?

Norma Embling | Oct 18, 2019
Geva Theatre Center | Oct 18, 2019

We had a two-ticket certificate special for $80 that expired on Cyber Monday. Our currents special is the two-ticket certificate for $100 (regular price after Dec 31st is $130). You may purchase the $100 special at this link - https://www.gevatheatre.org/visit/gift-cards-discounts/ Geva no longer offers last-minute discounts except for Student Rush. The best bet to save on tickets is to buy in advance. The two-ticket certificate is always a way to save.

Is there a service charge if you buy GEVA tickets in person at the box office? (VS online or phone)

Cathy Coe | Oct 18, 2018
Geva Theatre Center | Oct 18, 2018

Yes, there is a $6.00 order fee (not per ticket, per order) regardless of whether buying in-person, over the phone, or online. The fee goes toward the cost of our in-house ticketing system. We elected to purchase or own system rather than to go with Ticketmaster. We feel the fees for ticketmaster are too high for our patrons.
