How to Buy Tickets for an OpenStage Theatre & Company Show

Updated

OpenStage Theatre & Company sells both season tickets and individual tickets online. To buy a single-show ticket, open that show's page on openstage.com and click the “Get Tickets” button there; to buy for multiple shows, start from the season packages page instead. The site also links a Pay What You Can page, which is worth checking before you pay full price. The steps below assume you already know which production you want; if not, browse the current season first.

Before You Start

  • Pick your production. Each show has its own page with dates and details. For example, Dracula, based on the Bram Stoker novel and directed by Peter Anthony, is listed for October 31 – November 28, 2026.
  • Decide between individual and season tickets. The site states that season tickets and individual tickets are on sale now, and season packages are viewed on a separate page.
  • Check the Pay What You Can option. OpenStage links a “Pay What You Can” page from its site. The available page evidence does not specify eligibility, ticket limits, or which performances it applies to, so read that page before assuming it covers your chosen date.

Steps to Buy an Individual Ticket

  1. Go to openstage.com and navigate to the show you want (for example, via the season lineup or the show's “Learn more” link).
  2. On the show page, click the “Get Tickets” button. The site explicitly instructs: “Click the ‘Get Tickets’ button on any show page to buy tickets for that show!”
  3. Complete the purchase flow on the ticketing page that opens. The site does not publish its payment platforms or fee structure, so confirm the total and any charges on the checkout page before paying.
  4. Expected result: you receive a ticket confirmation for that specific show and date. Keep it for entry.

Steps to Buy Season Tickets

  1. From the homepage, open the season packages section (“View Packages”).
  2. Compare the package options for the season you want. Season 54 (2026–2027) is described as featuring Gothic Horror, Feminist Satire, Historical Comedy, and a Shakespearean Classic.
  3. Select a package and follow the purchase flow to checkout.

Verifying Your Purchase

  • Confirm the confirmation shows the correct show title, date, and time — especially for productions with long runs like Dracula, where it is easy to book the wrong performance.
  • If you used a Pay What You Can link, verify the amount and any conditions shown on that page were applied to your order.

Common Snags

  • No “Get Tickets” button visible: make sure you are on an individual show page, not a general information or blog page. The button lives on show pages.
  • Wrong season: the site currently promotes Season 54 (2026–2027) alongside a 2026 production of Dracula. Check the season label on the page before buying a package.
  • Unclear pricing: the site does not publish prices in the material available here. Treat any figure as confirmed only at checkout, and use the Pay What You Can page if cost is a barrier.

Beyond Tickets

If you want to get more involved, the site also offers a blog with theatre insights, a “Get Involved” section for supporters, and OpenStage merchandise available for purchase.
