Theater Coat Checks?

Hi all!!

I'm wondering what the bag policies are at the Imperial and the Eugene O'Neill Theaters and if either have coat checks? I'm planning on having a small backpack with me since I'll be sightseeing before the shows.

Thank you!

Theater Coat Checks?

I use a backpack all the time. They'll peek into it but you can take it into the theater with you and state it under your seat.

Theater Coat Checks?

Most theaters don't employ coat check in the summer months. But, Dolly is correct...as long as it isn't hiking size, you can have it at ypur seat. I almost always have one with me.


If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Theater Coat Checks?

So PThespian, does that mean there's definitely a coat check at the Shubert? I'm seeing DOLLY fresh off the bus in a few weeks and will have my huge backpack that acts as my suitcase with me.

I'm finding that the staff at the Shubert is very friendly and helpful. (The men in the box office call me by my first name nowadays!)

Why don't you call the theaters beforehand?

Theater Coat Checks?

Good suggestion! I did try to do this the other day; the issue is a lot of theaters don't have direct numbers. The number they generally list is for TicketMaster or a other ticket company.

Do a Google search forvthe actual theater and the box office number comes up. They're all area code 212.

Theater Coat Checks?

I got such a shocked reaction when I called the Belasco to see if they had a coat check, the person could not imagine why I would be trying to call the theatre directly lol! I didn't think it was that uncommon of an occurrence.

Theater Coat Checks?

PThespian said: "The Imperial is a Shubert house.

There are coat checks available year round at Shunert houses. Just ask at the bar.

Although Comet is unique so all bets are off there.
"

Comet coat Check is upstairs, by the men's bathroom (as I recall). No idea if it will be open in the summer, but Thespian seems to think so....
