Broadway In Chicago presents touring shows in four theaters of its own: the {api.venue(PALACE)}, the {api.venue(CIBC)}, the {api.venue(NEDER, 'James M. Nederlander Theatre')} and the Broadway Playhouse. It also lists the Auditorium, which is run by its own nonprofit. Before the listings, one rule matters more than any seat map.
Resale warning. Broadway In Chicago's ticket terms say its tickets "cannot be resold or distributed for sale to any unauthorized resale platform, ticket broker or any other person or entity for resale", and that if tickets are found being resold through a third party, "your order may be canceled without notice." It names broadwayinchicago.com and Ticketmaster as the only authorized sellers, so check those two first. TicketNetwork's guarantee promises valid tickets; if a venue refuses one anyway, the remedy is a refund, and you miss the show.

Kids, bags and refunds
Every child needs a ticket, whatever their age, and Broadway In Chicago does not recommend bringing children under 2. Under-18s must stay with an adult. There is no coat or bag check, so bring nothing that won't fit under your seat; bags around 10 × 10 inches or larger may be searched. Tickets are never refundable unless the event is canceled.
