You don't want to be the person that ruins the movie experience for everyone else. So, memorize these tips, and enjoy the show.

Reminder: Showplace has a fairly new age policy.

No person 15 years or younger is admitted after 6 pm unless accompanied by an adult 18 years or older. The accompanying adult must purchase tickets to the same movie, is responsible for the conduct and safety of the minor, and must remain with the children throughout the entire movie. A state-issued ID is required for proof of age.
