How about instead I change the theater to another one, can you check for showtimes in Bianchi Theatre?

The tickets do not include seat reservations, would that be fine by you?

I think so, I'm sure we will find good seats if we make it early to the showing. Can you tell me the total cost of the tickets?

The total cost of the reservation will be $21 for two tickets to The Grudge this Thursday at 10:25 at Bianchi Theatre.
