What the Broadway ticket covers

The Broadway FAQ describes a single performance of about 2 hours 55 minutes including an intermission. Check the NYC production’s schedule if you have seen references to the two-part format elsewhere. Stage illusions, sound and lighting are central to the experience, and the official FAQ lists strobe effects.

Plan around the Lyric

The production recommends ages eight and up. It does not admit children under five and requires an accompanying adult for children under 15. Compare a centered orchestra or Dress Circle view. Confirm the correct entrance and any access services with the theatre.
