For films rated “R” by the MPAA:
Harper will not sell tickets to any person under the age of 16 (17 where applicable) for Rated R movies.
A person must be at least 21 years old in order to purchase multiple tickets without providing additional photo I.D. for additional tickets.

Managers may empower Ushers to check for photo identification if a guest appears to be underage and is holding a ticket for an “R” rated feature.
App ticket sales are an important service for our guests. Tickets can be purchased online and picked up at the theatre, or an individual may purchase tickets directly from the register. It is important to remember that the admittance procedures still apply to those individuals that make purchases or redeem on-line ticket purchases from the counter.
Theatre Employees may be stationed at the entrance to theatre(s) playing MPAA rated “R” films to check tickets and photo identification for all who enter to prevent minors from improperly entering.
Harper reserves the right to refuse entrance to anyone that cannot present valid photo identification along with a ticket for the proper show time of the “R” rated film.
Newborn age and up to 5 years old is not allowed in Rated R, PG-13, and NC17 movies.

No one under the age of 18 is allowed admittance to the feature, regardless of accompaniment or consent.
A patron desiring to purchase multiple tickets must provide a valid photo I.D. for each ticket they purchase.
Ushers may conduct additional photo I.D. checks for MPAA guideline adherence at the doorman’s post and theatre checks.
