We are happy to partner with Black Woods Catering for our concessions and bar service. Feel free to stop by concessions on any level and choose from their variety of offerings. Purchased Beverages and snacks are allowed inside the theatre. No outside food or drinks are allowed.

We encourage you to be part of the experience. Chat with your neighbor, read the playbill, cheer, and give a standing ovation if you enjoy the show. The magic of theatre is that it is a collective, communal, and cultural experience. Celebrate coming together at the NorShor.
