Hi, everyone. Sorry for pimpin' this show incessantly, but it's a benefit for a really good cause, and where else will you see big name actors and writers taking this kind of risk? Here is the latest list:
CHEYENNE JACKSON, AMANDA PEET, ROSIE PEREZ, ALAN TUDYK, KATE BURTON, ADAM PASCAL, WILSON HEREDIA, TRACIE THOMS, RACHEL DRATCH, CADY HUFFMAN, KATHRYN ERBE, ANTHONY MACKIE, BEN SHENKMAN, ELIZABETH BERKLEY, ALLY SHEEDY, ASHLIE ATKINSON, CHARLOTTE D'AMBOISE, MARY STURART MASTERSON, WILLIAN SADLER and ANDRE ROYO*
and playwrights:
Warren Lieght, Greg Kotis, Dael Orlandersmith and David Lindsay-Abaire. Directors include: Christopher Ashley, Maria Mileaf and Indhu Rubasingham.
For those of you who might not be familiar with The 24 Hour Plays, it consists of 6 playrights each writing a 10-minute play overnight. The next morning the cast arrives and has the day to rehearse, get off book, learn blocking, and tech the show before the curtain goes up at 8pm. Check out http://www.24hourplays.com for more info.
100% of the ticket price (less ticketing fees) goes to Working Playground, an NYC-based arts education charity. The money will support programs to bring arts instruction to under-served NYC shcools and to develop a new program for students displaced by Hurricane Katrina. http://www.workingplayground.org for more info.
Tickets ($125) are on sale at: http://www.smarttix.com/show.aspx?showcode=24H1
And here's my question to you guys: What would the NYC-based students on this board be able to afford for a student ticket to this show? We would love to make the evening accessible to students, but it's a benefit, and we need to raise as much money as possible. So knowing that the lower the student price is, the fewer seats we will reserve (and the lower your change of landing one), what is a realistic price?
*(due to the nature of The 24 Hour Plays and of celebrity, people are always dropping in and out the "scheduled to appear "list)
