ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

• What does “Part 1 & Part 2” mean?

  The Inheritance is an epic drama presented as two full-length plays: Part 1 and Part 2. It is recommended that audience members see both Parts for the full experience and story.

• Do I have to purchase tickets to both Parts?

  While we encourage you to see both Parts for the full experience, buying each Part separately is an option. We do recommend purchasing a ticket to Part 1 first as elements in Part 2 may be unclear as characters and plot points are referenced throughout Part 2.

• What are the showtimes and running times?

  Part 1 and Part 2 performances will be staggered throughout the run, and due to the extended running time of each Part, showtimes will be earlier than our normal schedule:

  • Tuesday–Friday: 7:30pm
  • Saturday/Sunday Matinee: 1:00pm
  • Saturday/Sunday Evening: 7:00pm

  Part 1 runs an estimated 3 hours and 15 minutes, including two 10 minute intermissions.

  Part 2 runs an estimated 3 hours and 20 minutes, including one 10 minute intermission and a 5 minute pause.

• Can I see both Part 1 and Part 2 in one day?

  Yes! On select weekend dates during the run, Part 1 will be performed at the 1:00pm matinee, and Part 2 will be performed the same evening at 7:00pm.

• What kind of snacks/food will be offered if I choose to attend both Part 1 and Part 2 in one day?

  The lobby will be open one hour prior to showtime and we have a selection of snacks and drinks available for purchase. No outside food is allowed. The theater lobby will close between performances, so we recommend making a 5:00pm dinner reservation with one of our restaurant partners for a meal between performances.
