Off-Broadway Week: 2-for-1 Tickets through October 6

If you’re a theater lover, you know that there’s much more to see than the mega-hits running on Broadway. Off-Broadway is equally inventive and gives you a chance to be more up-close and personal in smaller venues.  For those of you who have been lax in buying tickets to these shows, now’s the time to go:  NYC & Company, New York City’s official marketing, tourism, and partnership organization has announced the opening of Off-Broadway Week. Through October 6, two-for-one tickets to 43 of New York City’s popular Off-Broadway shows will be available to a wide range of theatrical genres including comedies, dramas, musicals, family-friendly entertainment and more. Tickets are available at nycgo.com/offbroadwayweek.  Be sure to check the dates, as some blackout dates apply.

Some of my favorites are listed below including Avenue Q and the wildly inventive iLuminate: Artist of Light, a dance troupe seen on “America’s Got Talent” with fabulous music, artistry, light, drama, and, above all, incredible creativity. Others like Stomp and Blue Man Group aren’t new to the Off-Broadway scene, but they’re definitely worth a re-visit if it’s been a while since you first saw them. Thank you to The Off-Broadway League for offering this fantastic list of shows at these special prices.
