Coming Soon: Online Tickets to the Empress Theatre

Joline Walgamott, the Executive Director of the Empress Theatre, recently signed a deal with Arizona based EZTicketLive.com to host online ticket sales for the Empress Theatre. Patrons will follow a link on the Empress main website (www.empresstheatre.com) to the secure EZTicketLive website, where they will be directed through the process of registering their account, selecting their seats, making a donation to OHPAA, and finally paying for the purchase with a credit card.

Once the tickets are paid for, EZTicketLive will email the tickets to the email address provided during the registration process, unless the patron chooses to have the tickets mailed or left at the will-call desk.

The box office will use the same system to sell tickets at the door or when a patron calls the box office.

We're still setting up the computers at the theatre, and the system will be available as soon as we get the box office wired and staff trained to use the new system.
