Parent Pointers
It is important to mention to arrive extra early if you have tickets at will call or are purchasing tickets the day of the performance. Also, if you have higher seats you may want to bring binoculars or opera glasses to get a closer look at the action on stage. However, they are not necessarily needed because every seat in the theater has a clear view of the stage. I would also recommend selecting seats that are near the isle if you are bringing little children who may need frequent bathroom breaks during the performance. The production is approximately two to three hours long with an intermission but smaller children may get restless. You can get ticket information as well as upcoming productions by visiting the Lubbock Moonlight Musicals website. Whether you are a season ticket holder or a first time attendee, you will not be disappointed by the this production. Reserve your tickets today and experience life under the sea with Lubbock Moonlight Musical’s The Little Mermaid.
