Personal Responsibility Statement – The Village Theater at Cherry Hill prides itself on offering a diverse
selection of art exhibition and arts entertainment for our patrons. Not all
productions or art exhibitions may appeal to or be appropriate for every person
or for all ages. Therefore, patrons are encouraged to familiarize themselves
with the shows we offer in order to make informed decisions prior to purchasing
tickets.
Children
The Village Theater and all its renters require every attendee to have a
ticket. Most events are not suitable for preschool-age children. While we
believe a child should be exposed to the cultural arts, we are mindful of other
patrons' enjoyment as well. Therefore, we ask parental discretion in bringing
small children and infants. Should a child be unable to sit quietly in his/her
own seat throughout a performance, our ushers may request that the child and accompanying
adult leave the theatre.
