When does the shop open for each performance?

Pie and mash is served beginning 1 hour and 15 minutes prior to each curtain, and those who have purchased it may arrive any time after that until 30 minutes before curtain (at which point the last pie is served). All tables must be cleared 15 minutes later for performer safety. We encourage you to arrive on the early side so your meal is not rushed.

If you’re not dining with us, you’re welcome to enter the shop beginning 15 minutes prior to show time. Beer, wine, and non-alcoholic drinks may be purchased from the bar in the lobby before each show and during intermission. No outside food or drinks are permitted.

Is there late seating and/or re-entry?

There is no late seating or re-entry, unfortunately, due to the nature of the staging and safety of our performers. If you need to leave the shop during the performance, we will only be able to re-seat you after the intermission.

Buying Tickets

What is the maximum number of tickets that can be purchased within one order?

The maximum number of tickets that can be purchased within one order is 9.

Why can’t I print out or pick up my tickets ahead of time?

All guests will receive an email confirmation from OvationTix immediately after purchasing tickets, including seating location(s). Physical tickets will only be printed at the Barrow Street Theatre box office, and will be available for pickup beginning 2 hours prior to the performance you are attending. All guests will be required to show photo ID that matches the name on the ticket order. Please understand this is for your protection: ticket fraud and third party re-selling, often at extremely higher (and unlawful) prices, has become a pervasive problem in our industry.

Seating Locations

Where should I sit?

This varies from one individual to another, but we will give you some examples of previous customers:

Anthony likes to be a part of the action, and doesn’t mind a little attention and thrill now and then, so he chooses the seats in the Immersive section, knowing he may have to shift his body or neck to follow certain bits of action from time to time. Premium Immersive are the best seats in the house with the clearest most direct views.

The Forward View seats allows one to stay close to the action without being in the action. Nellie prefers this location because she can watch the show unfold in the three rows directly adjacent to the counters in the immersive section. This is the best way to see the show with little to no twisting or turning.

Benjamin prefers the Upstairs section for the most traditional theater experience and an overview of the entire production with a great view from above. It also provides a direct forward view of the production.

What’s the deal with Twisting View seats?

Twisting View seats are located in the center of the action of the production. However, because we mimic the seating of an actual pie shop, these seats orient audience members away from the optimal view, and one must reposition oneself to see much of the staging. We have designed our banquette benches to comfortably accommodate this shift.

Some audience members love the experience of being in the middle of the action, which can be more thrilling, especially for the lower price. But other audience members don’t like the discomfort of having to frequently turn one’s view or position.

What’s the deal with Partial View seats?

Partial View seating locations are in the second row (BB) of our Upstairs and have visual obstructions during certain moments of the performance.

As of July, 2017, we have improved the visibility of the sightlines and improved audience experience in this section by removing a pie shop shelf in the front row of the Upstairs.  Having done so, this creates better sightlines for viewers in both rows of the Upstairs.  However, it still does have some visual obstructions.

Where is the stage?

Instead of a traditional theater layout, our production of SWEENEY TODD is set inside a 360-degree re-creation of Harrington’s.  While there is no formal audience participation, the four center tables are particularly close to the staging.  Most of the action of the play takes place on and around the shop’s service counter and these tables.

Our Immersive section includes the four tables and two counters closest to the Service Counter.  The immersive nature of the show means that if you’re sitting at any of these tables or counters, the action happens all around you.  You may have to twist or turn your head from time to time.

If you’d prefer to watch the show facing straight ahead, we suggest our Forward View seats.

Lower price seats are available in our Twisting View and Partial View locations.

All of the seats are cushioned and have backs, most are banquette-style seating.  Seats in Rows A, F and J are slightly taller chairs for better viewing, and have footrests.
