How do I make reservations and purchase tickets?
If you did not reserve your show dates and purchase premium show tickets as part of the registration process, you may do so by logging into your account or by calling the box office at 402.345.4849.
What’s the difference between E-Tickets and Will Call?
The Will Call table is a table in the lobby, separate from the Box Office, where you can pick up your tickets. Tickets that are emailed to you can be scanned directly from your smartphone device or can be printed out if you find that to be more convenient.
If you select e-tickets, and cannot find them on the day of the show, the Box Office can always help you!
Can I exchange my tickets online?
Tickets are not able to be exchanged online. To exchange tickets, please call our box office at 402.345.4849.
Do you sell popcorn or snacks?
The Rose has a small gift shop open for most performances that sells snacks and bottles of water. Most items are $1.00. The gift shop also has some toys, stuffed animals, and books that can be purchased. The gift shop accepts credit cards for purchases over $5.00.
During premium events, The Rose opens additional counters to sell chocolate chip cookies and water during intermission. Those stations are cash only, but credit cards are accepted at the Box Office.
What should I wear?
The Rose welcomes you to wear what makes you feel comfortable. Some families welcome the opportunity to dress up and make it fancy. If the show has a popular theme, you’re welcome to come in capes and costumes!
Do you have booster seats?
The Rose lends booster seats for families on a first come, first served basis. We ask that you lend us your ID in exchange for the booster, which we return to you when the booster is returned.
