Frugalistas who love theater know there are lots of ways to score cheap tickets. One of the easiest is to attend almost any performance that isn’t on a Friday or Saturday evening. For example tickets to Stage Q’s production of “Sappho in Love” are $15 on Fridays and Saturdays, but only $10 on Thursdays and Sundays.
Here’s a brief summary of what “Sappho in Love,” which opens on Friday, February 12th and runs through Sunday, February 27th at the Bartell Theatre is all about (at least according to the Stage Q press release we received):
“… written by the popular Carolyn Gage (Ugly Ducklings, Second Coming of Joan of Arc) and directed by StageQ favorite Katy Conley, [it] is a lesbian midsummer night’s dream with the goddesses of celibacy, love, and marriage competing for Sappho’s attention amid poetry contests, meteor showers, lessons on lesbian love-making, romantic trysting, mix-ups and disguises. Wet and wild romantic comedy!”
“Sappho In Love” stars Molly Vanderlin as Aphrodite, Laura Spring as Hera, Leonie Dolch as Artemis and Boye as Sappho, along with Kristin Forde, Petrovnia McIntosh, Juli Branch, Marian Herzog, Nikki Weinfurtner, Christine Esche, Rachel Granda-Gluski, Sabra Katz-Wise, Vanessa Vesperman, Shelly Murray, Luv Seamon, Thia Triggs and Michelle Morency.
Stage Q gives you the option to purchase your tickets online or reserve them online. If you want to avoid paying a service charge, we recommend using the latter option.
Update 2/14/2010: Very positive review in Isthmus (“…this is a funny and entertaining production, and a packed house rightfully gave it an enthusiastic ovation.”)
