In recognition of our very own “hometown heroes!”
The Rose wants to say “thank you” to all the heroes in our community by giving a free ticket to Misunderstood: Heroes & Villains to educators, school employees, medical professionals and first responders.
Details:
- One free ticket for Misunderstood is available for anyone working in a school, medical facility or as a first responder (police, firefighters, EMTs, etc.).
- Free ticket cannot be exchanged for any other production.
- Available by calling the Box Office or online with the promo code HEROES
- The hometown hero will need to show an ID from their place of employment at The Rose’s Will Call table.
- Hometown heroes may come in either a heroes or villains costume (if they choose) and sit on either side of the auditorium — hometown hero status does not preclude from being a villain for the day.

Know Before You Go
Accessibility
Everyone deserves a chance to experience the magic of theater. Performances are open to children and family members of all abilities. Click here to learn more about accessibility at The Rose.
Social Stories
A social story is a tool that helps individuals better understand the world around them so they can plan for a positive experience, even if they are going into an place that is unknown to them. Social stories help individuals know what to expect and what to do in unfamiliar situations by walking them through the experience. They are often used by individuals on the autism spectrum, children with sensory needs or those with other special needs. They can be very helpful for very young children anticipating their first theatrical experience. The Rose’s social stories feature photos of all areas of the theater to help children of all abilities with a step-by-step explanation of what it is like to visit The Rose, as well as answering questions they may have.

Safety at The Rose
For generations, The Rose has been a trusted friend for children and families. We may be doing things a little differently this season, but our commitment to you is still the same.
Throughout this pandemic and in the days that follow, we promise that we will continue to be the place where families can be inspired by the magic of theater.
As our community begins to re-open, we re-commit to being a place where your family can enjoy the performing arts safely and securely.
From onstage performances to classroom experiences, we are dedicated to the health and well-being of every individual — young people, parents, grandparents, educators, artists and staff. This may mean that you encounter some changes during your Rose experience, and we ask for your cooperation and partnership with us to ensure the safety of everyone involved.
Here are just a few examples of our commitment to your safety:
Enhanced cleaning procedures
The auditorium and lobby will be thoroughly cleaned before and after each performance for your family’s safety.
Fewer audience members
Our auditorium seating will be limited in capacity. Families will be seated together with empty seats between family groups.
Directed Seating
In order to maintain social distance between groups, audiences will enter through the center aisle and be directed to specific seats on a first come, first served basis. Seating groups will be spaced at least six feet apart. Audience members will exit using the side aisles only.
Social Distancing
Families are asked to stay six feet from other family groupings. It may be necessary to form a line outside of the building to maintain this distance in line.
Masks Required
Per the City of Omaha mask mandate, a mask must be worn when inside the theater.
Touchless Ticketing
Tickets must be purchased in advance, either online or by phone. When you arrive at the theater, we will check your name off a list; no need to present a ticket.
Digital programs & online activities
Show programs will be available on The Rose website. There will be no lobby activities, but activities will be available online.

For your family’s safety, concessions and sales items will not be sold during the 2020-21 season. No outside snack items allowed.
One-way entry and exit
Families are asked to enter The Rose using the doors on 20th Street and exit onto Farnam Street.

Booster seats will not be available for loan from The Rose. You are welcome to bring your own seat for your child to use.
Limited Access to Restrooms
Access to restrooms will be limited due to social distancing requirements.
Drinking Fountains
Drinking fountains will not be available.
Additional Time for Seating
We realize these precautions may mean that it will take additional time to be seated. We will be opening the auditorium doors 40 minutes before showtime.
While the world around us changes, you can be assured that The Rose remains committed to you and your family, and that we continue to be a place where you and your children can experience the joy and spectacle of the performing arts together.
