Q: Is there a place to change diapers?
A: Yes, we provide you with a changing table. 
Q: Can I bring a stroller into the theater?

Q: How is the theater environment baby-friendly?
A: Lights are dimmed, but never off, making it easy to find your way in and out of the theater as needed. Also, the volume level will be turned down so as not to damage your baby's more sensitive eardrums.

Q: What if my baby cries?
A: That's ok! Going GaGa events are specifically geared towards parents with young infants, so nobody will mind if your baby cries or makes noise during the movie.

A: The village of Bryn Mawr has many municipal lots, and there is also free parking located in the lot directly behind the theater, which is accessible from Bryn Mawr Avenue.View further information and a map that will direct you to our free parking.
