CAN I BRING MY CHILD IN A PRAM, STROLLER OR BUGGY?
Whilst we encourage you to leave the pram at home, we understand that this is not always possible. Most venues will not allow you to take a pram into the auditorium (we need to keep the aisles clear in case of an emergency) however you will find there is a pram parking area at most venues.
WILL THERE BE MERCHANDISE ON SALE AT THE SHOW?
Yes, there will always be a merchandise stand for you to buy a Gabby’s Dollhouse Live! keepsake or souvenir on the day. Typical merchandise on offer may include T-shirts, plush toys and light-up toys. Merchandise does vary from show to show and from venue to venue, depending on what is available at the time. The merchandise stands at most venues are cashless these days.
I'D LIKE TO PURCHASE MERCHANDISE BUT I'M NOT ATTENDING A SHOW. CAN I PURCHASE FROM YOU?
Sorry, merchandise is only available to customers who attend the live show.
WHY IS THERE AN INTERVAL DURING THE SHOW?
Performing with puppets can be hard work. An interval is necessary to allow for the performers to safely have a rest break, to reset the stage, adjust the set, lighting or change costumes or actors. In Gabby’s Dollhouse Live! the interval is approximately 15-20 minutes. You will have time to visit the rest room and purchase refreshments.
