When are the shows?
Student Matinees take place on Thursdays. The shows always start at 10:30am sharp.
Where to our busses park and how do they drop off students?
Buses are recommended to come down Boush Street, and turn onto West Tazewell to avoid tight turns and come straight to East Tazewell (if you're on East Brambleton, you'll turn right onto Boush and if you're coming from Waterside you'll stay on Boush till you turn onto West Tazewell).
Parking is available in the large lot at Harrison Opera House (160 W Virginia Beach Blvd) by taking Granby or Boush Street North to cross East Brambleton). Please see the map attached here for more information.
