Family Friendly Performances
Attending a performance at the Center can be a priceless experience for the whole family. We believe parents are best qualified to judge what is most appropriate for their children. To assist parents, we have selected events that will be most enjoyable for audiences of all ages and have designated them “Family Friendly.”
For these events, anyone in grades 12 and under who are accompanied by an adult may attend for half price. You can easily find the “Family Friendly” events on this web site by looking for the (
) symbol.

Pre-Performance Discussions
Join us 45 minutes prior to the curtain for our Great Performances at Mason events, and enjoy our lively and popular Pre-Performance Discussions. These forums are led by local experts and, occasionally, by the artists themselves. Here, patrons are encouraged to ask questions and are able to gain a bit of insight and knowledge about our world-renowned guest artists. Held on the spacious and comfortable Grand Tier Lobby, these captivating exchanges provide a unique opportunity to go behind the scenes of a great performance!
