THE ACTING COMPANY

Presenting The Acting Company's 1995-1996 Season.

Our Tenth Anniversary season is a wonderful mix of comedy, mystery, and music with just a touch of drama to spice the cookie. What was the price for all this fun? Well, it was $12.00 per show ($10.00 for seniors and students) -$15.00 for single tickets on opening night for our gala party after the show. Or a mere $47.50 for an entire year's subscription (opening night galas included). Which, as far as subscriptions go, is amazingly flexible because you could use your tickets any way you chose. For five individual shows; five people going to one show; or two people going to one show, three to another. The possibilities were endless. As always, you could see the plays in our wonderfully intimate space. (Which, by the way, was in the heart of historic Lawrenceville).There were sixty seats in all (well, actually 80, but we were licensed for 60). And we filled them on a first-come, first-serve basis.
So you should have arrived well before the "curtain" went up!!!!
This happened promptly at 8:00 PM, Friday and Saturdays and 4:00 PM, Sundays. To know more, or make reservations, call 781-9198. On second thought, don't bother, we're closed.  :)
