Posted: 9/6/05 at 9:07pm

Just wanted to pass this info along to anyone who is interested. I just received this from the Public Theater (since I'm now a member)It's open to subscribers through 9/18. I'm assuming tickets will go on sale to the public shortly after that date.

Are the "post show discussions" for members only?

[sports620]

Posted: 9/7/05 at 12:44pm

so does that mean that the Tuesday, October 25, 2005 8:00 - performance is opening night?

[MargoChanning]

Posted: 9/7/05 at 1:05pm

I'd assume "Wednesday, October 26, 2005 2:00 & 7:00 (evening performance unavailable)" would likely mean that the 7pm show is opening night.

Posted: 9/7/05 at 1:17pm

Yep...Weds. October 26 is opening night.

Posted: 9/7/05 at 8:22pm
