CENTRAL CITY OPERA POLICIES Thank you for attending this Central City Opera performance. For the benefit of all patrons, please note the following policies: • Performances begin promptly at the advertised time. Due to the historic and intimate nature of our venue, it is difficult to seat latecomers without interrupting the rest of the audience’s experience. If you arrive late, we offer a live television stream of the performance in our Terrace Room on the ground floor of the Teller House. Patrons can watch there until seating is again appropriate, which may not be until after the first intermission. • Patron use of cellular phones, cameras and recording devices is not allowed in the Opera House. • Food is not allowed in the Opera House. • Water and beverages in CCO covered cups are allowed inside the Opera House. • Please be considerate of other patrons and refrain from talking or making other audible disturbances during the performance. • Unless the performance is cancelled, no refunds are given for any reason, including supertitle malfunction and weather conditions. • Casting is subject to change without notice. • Should first aid become necessary, please contact the nearest usher. • Assisted listening devices are available upon request.
