Snow Days - On weekdays when Montgomery County Schools are closed or delayed due to inclement weather, or when Glen Echo Park is closed by Park management, there will be no shows. Weekend closings will occur if weather or other conditions indicate a safety hazard. Closings will be noted at (301)320-6668 whenever possible.

Individual Sales - It is always advisable to call ahead for reservations and to make sure seating is available. A non-paid, no obligation reservation can be made up to two weeks in advance and will be held until 15 minutes before the show.

Tickets may be purchased with cash, check, Discover, Visa, or Mastercard. Paid advance reservations may be made using your credit card and will be held at the Box Office until you arrive. You may also purchase advance reservations in person during Box Office Hours.

Due to the popularity of The Nutcracker, we strongly recommend that you make reservations as far in advance as possible.

Group Sales are available. We request that all groups make advance reservations and follow the procedures below.

We recommend that schools have at least one chaperone for every ten students in order to guide them from/to the bus and the Playhouse and to ensure they remain organized while in the Park and the Playhouse. To support this, we allow one chaperone in for free for every 10 students attending.

Deposit - A 50% deposit is required to guarantee your reservation. A due date will be assigned when you make the reservation. The deposit is usually due 30 days prior to the performance you are attending. The balance is due the day you arrive to see the show. You will forfeit your deposit if you do not attend the performance, unless due to weather (see below) or other cancellation of the performance by the Puppet Co.

Weather - Should your school be officially closed due to inclement weather, the Puppet Co. will refund your deposit or apply it to rescheduling to the next available date of your choosing.
