Getting Ready for Your Howard Drew Theater Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a small general-seating theater where early arrival gives you more seat choice.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
• Arrive early. General seating means better seats go first-come, so giving yourself extra time helps you settle in before the performance begins.
• Wear the right footwear. Howard Drew Theater is a single-level intimate theater with straightforward access, so standard comfortable shoes are appropriate for the visit.
• Dress in layers. The venue is indoors and climate-controlled, so light layers can help you stay comfortable throughout the performance.
• Build extra time into your arrival plan. Arriving early is advisable because general seating gives early guests more choice in where to sit.
• Know your entrance. The Omaha Community Playhouse complex includes both Howard Drew Theater and the Hawks Mainstage Theatre, so follow Howard Drew Theater signage once inside.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
