Bucks County Playhouse aspires to provide an enjoyable theater experience for all patrons.

The Front of House staff is available to assist all patrons find their way safely and easily to and around the Playhouse campus. If you need assistance upon arrival, please check in with our house management team. In addition, we have the following accessibility amenities in place at the Playhouse:

In accordance with ADA regulations, we offer accessible parking at the same daily rate as non-accessible parking in the Playhouse lot. The Playhouse also offers valet parking with a drop off zone as close to theater as possible, for when ADA spaces are in use. We recommend patrons using wheelchairs or mobility aides to utilize this drop-off zone to disembark their vehicles for faster entry into the building.

By using the lower lobby doors, or by entering through the Playhouse Deck restaurant, there are no steps required to reach any row in the theater. There is an elevator on the Delaware River Promenade that takes patrons to the Playhouse Deck Restaurant. A ramp is available at the front of the theatre and the lower lobby doors offer easy access to the auditorium. 

In addition to a bar and box office, the lobby includes a single-use, accessible bathroom. Additional accessible restrooms are available in the Playhouse Deck restaurant. 

Several wheelchair and companion seats are available. Wheelchair locations are Row C – Seat 5 and Row E – Seat 6. If you require this seating, please notify the box office when making your purchase. Accessible and companion seating is located at the front of the house on both the right and left sides of the house. These sections are designated for wheelchair users or patrons with other mobility disabilities and their companions.

Wheelchair Spaces do not have a physical seat. We can provide a folding chair for patrons who wish to transfer out of their wheelchair, or for those who require a chair without arms.

Patrons who transfer from their wheelchairs or mobility devices will be able to have their chair or device stored with house management for the duration of the performance; ushers will be available to assist patrons in retrieving their chair or device.

Assistive listening devices are available for patrons who are hard of hearing to assist with amplification and clarity of the performance. Headsets and devices, cleaned between each performance, may be obtained at the access services window of the box office in the lower lobby You will be asked to leave a form of identification as a deposit when you pick up the device. Due to high demand, it is recommended patrons who intend to utilize an assistive listening device arrive at least 45 minutes prior to curtain. If you wish to use your own headset with our devices, you may bring a pair of standard wired (NOT wireless) headphones and our Front-of-House Staff will be happy to provide you with a device.

There is no dress code, unlike a night at the movies, going to the theater means you’re going to be seated in front of talented actors in person, so a level of respect for their craft and the venue is appropriate. Otherwise, wear whatever you are comfortable in. Some patrons like to come “dressed up” to the theatre, others prefer more comfortable attire.

Unless otherwise stated, no one under the age of 4 is admitted to the theater. Anyone entering the theater, including children, must have a ticket.

Age appropriateness varies with each production. Check the show page or contact the Box Office to verify what is the best age for the show you wish to attend.

The Playhouse Barn is an intimate space and, depending on your party size and available seating, you may be seated with another party.

If you are purchasing tickets with another party under different names, please indicate in your order comments that you would like to be seated together. We will make our best effort to accommodate you.

Doors open 45 minutes prior to the performance unless otherwise stated.

The Playhouse Barn has it’s own dedicated bar with table service. Like many cabaret venues with limited seating capacity, most of our cabaret performances require a drink minimum.

Brunch cabaret performances include a continental-style breakfast and will be indicated on the specific event page. However, all other cabarets do not have any food service.
