Sydney - Phantom of the Opera - Ticket IDs?

Question

Hi, my friend bought me phantom of the opera tickets for the Lyric theatre in Sydney. She paid for them by her credit card so the tickets are in her name. Will that be a problem? Do they check the ID of ticketholder and the person carrying the ticket?

Answer 1

Can't see why it would be a problem, as people often buy theatre tickets as gifts.

Why don't you ring the theatre and find out from them.

Answer 2

It does not matter the name on the tickets. As long as you have a valid ticket on hand, you are allow to enter the theatre.

If your friend bought the tickets on-line using her credit card and wish to collect the tickets at a ticket outlet (ticketek or at the theatre), then she must personnally collect the tickets.

Incidentally, I just seen the show last week. It was excellent.

Answer 4

Don't think so unless they are suspecting something or if they feel like they need to. This varies as each place does their job differently.

...and what's wrong if your friend got you the tickets? It's her money.
