School Shows

Once your reservation has been placed, you will receive a contract from The Rose approximately one month in advance of the show. Changes to your reservation will be accepted up to 10 days prior to the show date, pending availability. Please read your entire contract carefully!

• You will receive a contract one month prior to your performance date and time. 
• You MUST return this contract with any changes in:
  • Attendee numbers
  • Accessibility needs (wheelchair access, hearing impairment, etc.)
  • Transportation plans
• This contract must be returned no later than two weeks prior to your performance date. 
• Parent chaperones must be included on the contract. We cannot admit additional chaperones that arrive on the day.

To comply with state tax laws, please pay by official school or PTA check only. We do not accept cash or personal checks, and there are no refunds. Prices do not include tax.

• Payment is due no later than 5 business days before the performance. 
• Payment must be in the form of a school purchase order, school credit card, school check or money order. Cash and/or personal checks will not be accepted. 
• If you are located in Nebraska and we have your tax exemption information on file, you will not be charged tax. Please provide your tax exemption code if tax has been added and you are an exempt school in Nebraska. 
• Out of state schools, regardless of tax exemption, must pay sales tax.

Cancellations due to school closings will entitle you to a refund. Should your group cancel without a minimum of two weeks written notice, you will be charged 25% of the total contract fee. Other than these exceptions, once we receive your payment, there are no refunds. 

Should a student be absent from school on the day of the show, you will receive a rain check to be used for a future performance.

We are happy to invite home school groups to attend our School Show Performances. We require a minimum of 10 paying students and only 1 complimentary teacher ticket per family. A single personal check will be accepted for your group. We cannot accept partial payments from each family.

Please note that you will need to pay for parking near the theater and allow ample time to walk over to the theater.

Please arrive 15 minutes before curtain. Latecomers will be seated at the House Manager’s discretion. 

Upon arrival, please remain seated on the bus until a Rose Staff Member has given your bus driver parking instructions.

All school groups are assigned reserved seating. An usher will escort your students from the bus, into the theater and to the correct seating area. Please have your students ready. No food or drink is allowed inside the theater’s seating area.

For pick up, busses are asked to form a line behind the parked vehicles on 20th Street south of Farnam. Please do not double park, cut around other busses in line, or pull up to the building before the busses in front of you have properly departed. Once your bus is loaded, please depart promptly in order to allow other busses to proceed with their pick up.
