Faqs

What is the “Cafe Seat” option and how are these tickets sold?

Cafe seats are specialized table-style arrangements located in the venue, offering a more relaxed atmosphere than standard theater seating. These are typically sold in units of one person but require the purchase of two tickets to fill the table, making them ideal for pairs attending together.

Who should I contact if I require wheelchair access at Club eX?

If you are using a wheelchair, it is important to contact the event organizers at the provided support email address in advance of the performance. This allows the venue staff to prepare the appropriate space and ensure you have a smooth entry on the day of the show.

Are there any age restrictions for the “Four Seasons Series” reading sessions?

Preschoolers are not permitted admission to this event to ensure that the quiet, focused atmosphere required for a dramatic reading is maintained. The performance is designed for an adult audience and older children who can remain quiet throughout the duration of the play.

What does a “Partially Obstructed View” seat entail?

These seats are offered at a lower cost because specific equipment, pillars, or stage structures may block a portion of the performance area from view. While you will still be able to hear the reading perfectly, some visual elements of the stage may not be fully visible.

Can I still attend if the primary “Adults Reserved” seats are sold out?

If the main seating categories are sold out on official platforms, Jasumo can look into verified Japanese resale markets to find legitimate tickets. We handle the verification process to ensure the tickets are valid for entry, even for high-demand sessions featuring popular cast members.
