FAQs

What is the U24 ticket type in Okayama?

U24 tickets are discounted for guests aged 24 and under. You must present a valid photo ID (passport or residence card) at the entrance to verify your age, or you may be asked to pay the price difference.

Are there any language barriers for the play?

The play is performed in Japanese. However, as a “musical drama,” the visual storytelling, music, and recognizable plot of Brecht’s original work make it accessible even to those with limited Japanese proficiency.

What happens if I arrive late for the performance?

For the Saga performances, late arrivals may not be allowed to their original seats immediately to avoid disturbing the play. Theater staff will guide you to a temporary seat or wait for a scene transition.

Is the theater wheelchair accessible?

Yes. For the Saga (Tosu) performances, please notify us before purchasing so we can contact the venue (Three O’Clock) to ensure wheelchair space availability.
