Discovery Payments can only be accepted by the Box Office IF:
- They are paying in full.
- There are NO changes being made to ticket totals.
- There are no new accessibility needs that are being requested.
If any of these are being asked, the call should be forwarded to Taylor Wadham, 937-637-8267, or Ext. 161.
Patrons should have their account/order number when paying off the invoice.
¶ Summer Hours (no Saturday hours)

Tuesday - Friday, 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM, and 90 minutes prior to performances.
¶ DPAA Renewals

Moulin Rouge tickets will not be sent out until 30 days prior to the show

¶ Bugs & Issues
¶ Upset about programming
As we have done with other programming that has made people angry. It is important that we as employees of Dayton Live remain neutral and do not share our personal opinions/beliefs when dealing directly with angry patrons.
If a patron would like to express their concerns to the Dayton Live management, you can transfer the call to the Comments Line (extension 5) in Ring Central and they can leave a message that will be reviewed by management (however do not promise them a return call).
¶ Weather Cancellation Policy

¶ Email Confirmations to Spam
Recently Email services (particularly Gmail) has been sending our confirmations and/or ticket emails to spam or flagging them as potentially malicious
¶ Cards Declined on the Website
- We have had to increase the security of the credit card processing service we use for the website and the service (3D Secure) has lead to valid cards being declined by the website as some cards are not set up for 3D Secure
- We can process them in person or over the phone without any problem
- They can call their bank/card service to see if they can set it up for 3D Secure
¶ Tickets Disappearing from Basket
- Sometimes when a patron is ordering over the website when they reach the step that asks if they would like to donate and the seats they had in their order will disappear from their order basket but still appear as locked in a web order
- the seats will be released when the order times out which can take 20-30 minutes
- the issue is being worked on
