theatreWeek 2015 celebrates the glory, the laughter, the thrills, and the insights into the human condition that only a trip to live theatre can evoke. And it does all that by offering area residents that all-American event – the discount sale!
For one week only – September 21-27 – theatres throughout the region will dig deep to offer patrons one-time-only incentives on upcoming productions in their 2015-16 season. Whether seeking musicals, drama, comedy, classics, or theatre for young audiences, theatre-goers and theatre-newbies will find opportunities to purchase tickets at remarkable savings. In the process, they’ll get the chance to step outside their comfort zone and experiment with some new theatrical flavors.
You’ll find the hot deals listed below! Check it out and plan ahead for your personal shopping spree. Stretch those hard-earned dollars while targeting both old favorites and challenging new experiences.
And, hey, it’s never too early…Theatre is a one-size-fits-all holiday gift!
Our ticket deals go live at 12:01 AM Monday, September 21, but our mad rush is entirely digital – putting 50 area theatres at the tips of your fingers! But remember, it’s first-come, first served while the inventory holds up. Mark your calendars to camp out at your computer and grab all you want – and more!
theatreWeek is sponsored in part by the DC Commission for the Arts and Humanities.
