Burien Little Theatre lowers student prices in February
Sat, 01/30/2010
During the month of Febraury all students get reduced ticket prices for Burien Little Theatre's production of Arne Zaslove's 1950's Rock 'n' Roll version of "A Midsummer Night's Dream."
Recently, Burien's arts commission awarded BLT a grant from the Arts and Culture Fund.
The theatre is using the grant to reduce student ticket prices during the first three weeks of the musical comedy.
Students pay $10 per ticket on the weekends of Feb. 12-14, Feb.19- 21 and Feb. 26-28. In March, student ticket prices go back up to $17 at the door.
Last fall, the City of Burien welcomed applications for the 2010 Arts & Culture grant funding. Total funding available was an estimated $20,000.
The play is set in a gymnasium at Athens High School on graduation day 1957, and in a neighboring forest. A group of magical fairies intervene and meddle with the lives of two young couples for whom "the course of true love never did run smooth."
Botched love spells, hilarious characters and 1950s rock 'n' roll make this show a treat for young and old, those in love and those between love.
"Midsummer" runs through March 21. Shows are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm and Sundays at 2 p.m.
