A Message About Safety and Security at Chutzpah!

The safety of our audiences, staff, and artists is our top priority. We will always act in a proactive, abundantly cautious manner when it comes to community security. We work closely with the JCC and the community director of security, as well as the Vancouver Police Department and the RCMP to provide assessment, protection, and rapid response. Please see our full statement here.

Due to our proactive approach to security, only ticketed patrons will be admitted into the facility. Kindly leave large bags at home and be prepared to present your bag to security for inspection. Have your tickets ready when you arrive at the theatre - they can be printed out or displayed on your phone. Please see the Will Call desk for assistance. JCC Members may show their ID badge to enter the facility directly. We appreciate your patience and cooperation.

Please note that all cellphones and other mobile devices must be silenced and tucked away during performances. No use of devices, including photography or video, is permitted during performance.
