SPECIAL $10 STUDENT/TEACHER PRICE – ADVANCE ORDER ONLY… $10 tickets! Please read carefully: An anonymous friend of Arizona Onstage Productions has acknowledged the importance of SONGS, especially for students/teachers who might not otherwise have the opportunity to witness quality live musical theater written by a young composer. In order to encourage these students/teachers to be able to see SONGS, this friend has allowed Arizona Onstage Productions to offer $10 tickets for active students/teachers. This offer is for the first 50 student/teacher tickets per performance sold at least two hours before curtain of every performance. These tickets will go quickly, so the sooner you order, the better your chances are.
CONDITIONS FOR $10 Student/Teacher tickets:
*Students/teachers must purchase their ticket online at least 2 hours before each performance at www.arizonaonstage.org – There is no need to arrive earlier than normal – just make sure that you have a ticket or a print-out of your conformation from Brown Paper Tickets. Again, there is no service charge.
*Each $10 ticket holder will be asked to show his or her valid Student/Teacher I.D. Only one ticket is accepted per I.D. This will be strictly enforced.
*No $10 Discount tickets will be sold at the theater. If someone arrives at the theater expecting to purchase a $10 ticket at the box office, he or she will be asked to go online and purchase a ticket for a subsequent performance. Students/teachers will also have the option to purchase a discounted ticket for $25 if they do not wish to wait for the next performances.
*$10 Student/teacher Discount tickets apply ONLY to the FIRST 50 tickets per performance sold in advance online.
Seating is open, so if you have non-students in your party, you will still be able to sit together if you wish.
