The Peter Norton Space
|
Where are you located?
Signature's Peter Norton Space is located at 555 West 42nd Street between 10th and 11th Avenues, closer to 11th Avenue.
What is the closest subway station?
You may take any train to Times Square or Port Authority and transfer to the M42 bus going west or walk over a few avenues to 11th Avenue. It can be a long walk from the subway, so please allow plenty of time to arrive on time.
Is there parking nearby?
Yes. Park & Lock is located at 42nd Street between 9th and 10th Avenues. Please refer to our In the Neighborhood section for additional options.
Where can I get something to eat?
You are in luck! There are many fine restaurants in the area. Some of our favorites include Chez Josephine, 44X10 and the West Bank Café. If you are looking for a casual meal, try Starwich, a gourmet sandwich café just a few doors down. Please refer to our In the Neighborhood section for additional options. We also sell light snacks and refreshments at our concession stand.
What is the running time of the show?
Edward Albee's Occupant runs approximately two hours, with a 15 minute intermission.
Can I bring my children to Signature Theatre?
As a courtesy to our patrons, it is our policy not to admit anyone under the age of six. All patrons, regardless of age, must have a ticket. For PARADISE PARK the Signature age reccomendation is 13 and up.
Is photography or videography permitted at the theater?
The use of cameras and video/sound recorders inside the theatre is strictly prohibited by law. The use of such devices may result in the confiscation of memory cards and video tapes.
What time should I arrive at the theater?
We suggest you arrive approximately 20-30 minutes before curtain as late comers can only be seated at the discretion of theatre management.
What is your late seating policy?
We know you are a fantastic, considerate theater patron and you won't come late.
I am a fantastic, considerate theater patron but what if I am still running late?
The Peter Norton Space is an intimate 160-seat house. Due to the configuration of our theatre, and to avoid disturbing other patrons, we may not be able to seat you in your original seats. We have a small late seating section in the back of the theatre. However, if this section is full, we will be unable to seat you until intermission. Don't miss out - give yourself plenty of time to arrive.
Why haven't I received my tickets yet?
We typically mail out tickets two weeks before a scheduled performance. If it is less than two weeks out to your show date, and you have not yet received your tickets, please call the box office so that a replacement pair may be printed for you.
What are my options if I lose my ticket?
Please call the box office and they will reprint your tickets and have them waiting for you on the night of the event.
What is a folding chair seat?
Folding chair seats are Signature Theatre Company's version of standing room, but instead of letting you stand, we provide a comfortable padded folding chair for your convenience. Each seat is sold for $20 and has a full view of the stage.
What is your standby/wait list policy?
For sold out performances, the box office may start a standby waitlist. To sign up for the waitlist, you must be at the box office in person at least one hour prior to curtain.
What is a “Talkback?”
A talkback is a post-show discussion where you meet with members of the artistic staff and cast. This is a chance to ask any questions about the show or artistic process and gain more of an insight into the authors work.
What is a “Backstage Event?”
A Backstage event is a pre-show intimate discussion with a guest artist or theatre professional followed by a short wine and cheese reception.
Are there any student or senior discounts?
The original 8-week runs of each of the shows up to our 20th Anniversary Season have been generously underwritten so that tickets only cost $20 each. No further discounts are available. If a show extends, we may offer discounts. Please call the box office for more information.
Are hearing devices available?
A limited number of hearing devices are available at the concession stand first come, first serve. Hearing devices are free to rent, but you must leave a photo ID. Please note that hearing devices do not work in the first three rows of the theater. If you prefer, you may also attend one of our Open Caption performances. Please check each show's calendar to see scheduled OC performances.
Is the theatre handicap accessible?
Yes, the Peter Norton Space is wheelchair accessible. Please let us know at the time you book your tickets if you will require assistance or a wheelchair location so that we may prepare for your visit. Please click here for more information.
What number should I give the babysitter?
For emergencies, you may use our House Manager's number at (212) 714-9072. If there is no answer, please instruct the caller to keep trying as the House Manager may not be in the office at a particular time.
What happens if I can't use my tickets for tonight?
There are no refunds or exchanges on ticket sales. You have a couple of options. You may give your tickets to a friend or you may choose to donate your tickets back to the theater. If you donate your tickets, we can send you a letter for tax purposes. Please call the box office prior to the performance so that we can release your seats to the waiting list.
Help, I don't know what to wear to the theatre!
Relax! We have no dress code at Signature. Many of our patrons come after work and are in business attire, while others dress more casually. Of course, shoes and shirts MUST be worn, but otherwise, dress comfortably or dress up if you like. Keep in mind the theatre is air conditioned on warm days, so if you are cold-blooded, you may want to bring an extra sweater.
