On Sunday, Oct. 5, Cape May Stage and PNC have teamed up to offer a ‘pay what you can’ night for theatergoers to attend the Stage’s latest production.
This is the second season that the city’s renowned professional Equity theatre, now celebrating its 20th anniversary season, has offered these special evenings of theatre.
The ticket amount paid is entirely at the discretion of the theatergoer and is intended to draw those who are deterred by the traditionally higher prices.
“The staff at Cape May Stage hopes that many young people and their families–as well as senior citizens–will be able to attend a production this fall at Cape May Stage during our 20th Anniversary Season,” says Marketing Director Alicia Grasso.
“We want everyone, if they haven’t already, to come see our restored theatre and enjoy a play. We only have two more ‘pay what you can’ performances left in the season.”
“Rounding Third” is the perfect sports comedy for anyone who has ever experienced the thrill of cheering on the child they love in everything from sports to science fairs. This quirky comedy teams up two mismatched men to coach a Little League baseball team.
Don (Greg Wood) is a win-at-all-costs veteran whose son is the star pitcher; Michael (Richard Hoehler) is the wide-eyed newcomer who just wants the kids to have fun.
Balls will fly as these co-coaches battle it out in the box. Exhilarating victories, heartbreaking defeats, and life lessons round out this play, sure to hit home.
Tickets for designated ‘pay what you can’ performances go on sale at the box office at 7:45 p.m. prior to an 8 p.m. curtain time on Oct. 5.
Regular ticket prices range from $12.50- $35. Whatever tickets have not been sold for that evening’s performance will be ‘pay what you can’ and will be distributed on a first-come first-serve basis. Cash sales and exact change only.
Seating for all ‘pay what you can’ performances is subject to availability and is not guaranteed.
“Rounding Third” performances run Wednesdays through Sundays at 8 p.m. through Nov. 1 at the Robert Shackleton Playhouse of the Cape May Stage, Bank and Lafayette streets.
A marvelous Dinner-and-a-Show package promotion is available with 17 of the finest restaurants in Cape May.
