Plot:
On the night of his 35th birthday, confirmed bachelor, Robert, contemplates his unmarried state. Over the course of a series of dinners, drinks and even a wedding, his friends – “those good and crazy people [his] married friends” – explain the pros and cons of taking on a spouse. The habitually single Robert is forced to question his adamant retention of bachelorhood during a hilarious array of interactions.

*Pay What You Can:
*Please note that we have 3 “Pay What You Can” performances on Sunday, May 3rd, Thursday, May 7th and Thursday May 14th. We believe that everyone should have access to great theatre! Tickets are normally priced at $25, but if you’re a little low on funds, pay what you’re able to! Or if you’re feeling generous, give a little more! We’ll have QR codes and places to drop cash should you want to add a little extra after the show.
Policies:
House opens 30 minutes prior to each performance.
Note: In some instances where seating is not yet ready for patrons, we will open the Lobby at 30 minutes but bathrooms may not be immediately available until seating is open.
Seating is general admission on a first come first serve basis and includes a combination of regular-height and counter-height (bar stool height) chairs.
If you have a special seating need, please reach out ahead of time for accomodation.
These could include things such as being unable to use a bar stool height chair, needing special access to the exit, being unable to transfer from a wheelchair, or needing extra space or chairs that can accommodate over 250 lbs.
Late Seating: Due to the intimate nature of our studio space, doors to the studio will close at showtime. Late seating may not be able to be accommodated, especially if you have not purchased your tickets ahead of time. If you are running late to a performance, please call or text us at (856) 441-0126 with your ETA and we will do our best to hold the house or otherwise prepare for your late arrival.
Tickets are non-refundable but may be transferred to another performance of the same production. Simply contact the Box Office and if there are seats available, we will gladly move your tickets into another performance of the same production.
Our facility is wheelchair accessible. Although our main entrance does have two steps and no railing, we do have a side entrance with no steps. Kindly contact us ahead of time to inform us of your need and either call the box office or see a member of our front of house staff when you arrive so we can send someone out to open the side entrance for you.
Please note that our blackbox and studio are very intimate spaces. You will be seated in close proximity to others as well as the actors. Leaving your seat during the performance can be dangerous and disruptive to everyone as the lights will be dimmed and actors as well as production elements (set, props, costumes) may be in unexpected places in the hallways outside the blackbox. Therefore, we request remaining seated during the perfromance unless there is an emergency.
If you have any questions, please contact BoxOffice@MasqueradeTheatre.org.
