Box Office

Box Office Hours

Monday –  Friday 10:00am  to 4:00pm for the duration of the current health situation.

The Box Office is closed on all major holidays.

Seats are assigned by the box office on the day of the performance, with priority being given to donors, subscribers, and those with special seating requirements. Following those assignments, seats are assigned in the order of purchase, with care being taken to make sure that all members of a given party are seated together.

First Folio accepts Visa, MasterCard, and Discover.
Online patrons may also use PayPal at checkout.

Got a larger group? Call us for information on additional discounts, up to 25% off each ticket, with free tickets for the group leaders.

Got a group of 40 or more? Call to schedule a special performance for your group.

Ticket Return Policy

Ticket purchases are non-refundable.
If you are not feeling well the day of a performance, please contact us to exchange your tickets.
For all other reasons, tickets already purchased may be exchanged for another performance provided the exchange is made at least 96 hours (four days) in advance. Exchanges with less than four days notice will be made only if we are able to resell the tickets for the original date or will be subject to a 50% exchange fee. (Subscribers may exchange up to 72 hours in advance without fee or penalty.) Additional charges will apply for exchanging preview tickets for non-preview performances or for exchanging weekday tickets for weekend tickets.

Announcing the Retirement of Founding Executive Director David Rice & Ceasing Operations in 2023

Over two-and-a-half decades we have mounted over 80 productions, produced 14 world premieres, and 6 commissions. We have had more shows directed by women in the past 25 years than almost any other Equity theater in the Chicago area. We also led the way in opportunities for women designers, resulting in multiple Jeff Nominations and Awards for the many women who have worked here. Thank you all for your steadfast support through all these years. We will miss you!
