There is no age restriction for children; however, as a courtesy to other patrons and the performers, the Auditorium discourages attendance by children under the age of five (unless the production is specifically intended for young children). All patrons must have a ticket for admittance, and in all instances babes in arms are not permitted. Any person who disturbs the performance or other patrons will be asked to leave the theatre without a refund issued. It is the sole responsibility of the parent or guardian to research and judge the content of a performance as appropriate for their child's age and level of maturity. There is no official rating system for live performances.

The Auditorium Theater of Roosevelt University (ATRU) created Hands Together, Heart to Art (HTHTA), in response to what is a very serious and integral need. HTHTA is an arts initiative for children who are grieving the death of one or both parents. Employing several areas of the performing arts, the program encourages communication, fosters emotional growth, and provides the consolation of friendship and compassion. Artists and healing counselors work with campers in this unique program that celebrates the healing power of creative play. Throughout the sessions, ATRU brings in guest specialists in other art forms who offer their expertise and lead group activities. The children participate in each component and in the final production. Though the children will work toward a presentation of their creative work, the success of the program is not concerned wholly with the overall talent or aptitude of the final presentation. The intention is to engage the children in the arts, but not specifically to groom them as future performers and artists. If at the end of the program the children have formed friendships, increased their self-confidence, and discovered the arts as a course of healing, we have been successful.
