Frequently Asked Questions

Ticket Policies

Before you arrive, review our ticket and pass guidelines to help your visit go smoothly. These policies outline what to expect and how we can best assist you.

Custer State Park Passes

Custer State Park pass required for entry, $40 res/$60 non-res annual; $25, 7-day, temporary.  Sorry, no day passes available in CSP.

Exchanges

Tickets may be exchanged by calling the Box Office on 605-255-4141 no later than 4:00 p.m. the day before the performance is scheduled.  Exchanges are available for tickets of equal or greater value and are good for the current season only.

Infant and Young children

We do not recommend our performances for children under the age of 4. Young children often have difficulty remaining attentive and quiet throughout a performance. If a child becomes restless or fussy, we ask that parents promptly step out of the theater out of consideration for other patrons. Please note that the Black Hills Playhouse does not offer a designated cry room, so we encourage families to select seats that allow for an easy exit if needed

Print at home tickets no longer available

We are sorry, but we no longer offer a print at home option for tickets because our location doesn’t support the technology. All patrons should pick up printed tickets at the Will Call window at the box office.

Sales

All sales are final, and we do not offer refunds unless we have to cancel a show out of extraordinary circumstances. However, we are happy to exchange your tickets for a different performance. If customers do not show up for a performance we reserve the right to resell seats.

Refund Policy In Case of Cancellation

Very rarely, a show may be canceled after an audience has arrived due to unforeseen circumstances, such as a power outage or fire evacuation. We will do our best to schedule you for another performance or provide refunds as necessary.

BUFFALO, HOLIDAY, or any other PASS holders – Tickets may be returned to your pass at your request so you can call or go online at your convenience to make a reservation for a different performance.

CREDIT CARD – If you are unable to make another performance, please call us to request a refund to your card.

CASH or CHECK – If you are unable to attend another performance, please call us to request a refund for the canceled performance.

REFUNDS will not be made on-site after a performance has been canceled.

Service Charges

A non-refundable convenience fee of $10.00 applies to all pass orders in the virtual ticketing system.

There is a $3.50 per ticket convenience fee for each ticket in an individual ticket order.

Tickets That Won't Be Used Last Minute

If a patron arrives with tickets that won’t be used on the day of the performance, we ask that they be turned into the box office. We reserve the right to resell the tickets. Often, we have people on a waitlist who may have priority of receiving seats if a performance is sold out.

Waitlists for Sold Out Shows

1. You may leave your name on a waitlist if it is sold out.

2. People must be at the box office at least one half hour before curtain to check-in

3. We cannot guarantee a seat.

4. We will seat approximately 5 minutes to curtain in order of the people who have signed up in advance first and then walk-ups.
