Unfortunately, James III is 100% SOLD OUT

You're welcome to keep checking the seating map periodically as some times customers cancel their reservations.

Standby Line Policy: Our Standby Line allows patrons who do not have tickets to purchase any last-minute empty or returned seats.  Patrons usually start lining up outside the Black Box approximately 60 minutes before curtain time.  Available seats are released to the first customers in line. We have had success in past Black Box shows getting a lot of people into the show this way.

**Although the optimal experience is to view the entire trilogy, each of the three plays stands alone as a separate story and can be viewed without seeing any of the other parts.  For example, James II  is a full play on its own and will make sense even if you have not seen James IOr if you can't get into James III, the other two plays are complete experiences in and of themselves and won't leave you hanging without the conclusion :-)

CONTENT ADVISORY: Although we have worked with the playwright and the school district to remove language that may be offensive to some high school audiences, there are still some instances of intense violence, mild language, and other suggestive situations portrayed in The James Plays.  The plays may not be suitable for audiences of all ages.  They are probably equivalent to a PG-13 film rating.
