First Time Free

To be eligible for First Time Free tickets, you must be a new household in Olney Theatre Center's database with no prior purchase history for anyone residing at your address. We don't know who would do this, but obviously, if we find that you're trying to game the system, your tickets will be revoked as outlined in our ticket policies. Quantities are limited and once a performance is sold out, there is no wait list.
