In the unlikely event that the Safety Captain determines we must evacuate the amphitheater, our primary concern is your safety as you exit. There are exits at the front and rear of the theater. Please be aware of the route from your seat to all exits and follow the instructions you receive from the Safety Captain and theater volunteers.

First Aid boxes are available in the control booth and upper concession booth.
