Comp Tix to POTUS and THE MINUTES on Broadway
|
|
|
Thanks to Theatre Advisory Board Member Mary Cirillo, we have a limited number of comp tickets for matinee performances of POTUS and The Minutes on Broadway.
POTUS
Saturday, April 30th at 2pm
One 4-letter word is about to rock 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. When the President unwittingly spins a PR nightmare into a global crisis, the seven brilliant and beleaguered women he relies upon most will risk life, liberty, and the pursuit of sanity to keep the Commander in Chief out of trouble.
An uproarious Broadway debut by playwright Selina Fillinger, directed by five-time Tony Award® winner Susan Stroman, POTUS is a riotous comedy about the women in charge of the man in charge of the free world.
The Minutes
Saturday, April 30th at 2pm
THIS RECORD-BREAKING HIT from the award-winning Steppenwolf Theatre follows the inner-workings of a city council meeting in the small town of Big Cherry—and the hypocrisy, greed, ambition and devious doings that ensue. This electrically charged and sharply funny play proves that everything you know can change—it’s just a matter of minutes.
Please note these tickets are for declared theatre majors and minors. Limit 1 ticket per student.

Performed by the internationally-acclaimed Kulunka Teatro (which received the spanish equivalent of a Tony Award for Best Play in 2018), this non-verbal theatre piece uses movement, puppetry, and mask to celebrate the shared lives of a pair of artists - André with his typewriter, Dorine with her cello - and how they relive and reinvent their love together as Alzheimer's becomes a permanent part of their relationship.
