Ticket Giveaway: “The Sunset Limited” @ SF Playhouse

24 Oct

To kick off the season we bring one of the most insightful writers of our time, Cormac McCarthy (The Road, No Country for Old Men) together with two of the most powerful actors in the Bay Area, Carl Lumbly (Jesus Hopped the ‘A’ Train, Alias, Cagney & Lacey) and Charles Dean (White Christmas, Awake and Sing!). A startling encounter on a New York subway platform leads two strangers to a run-down tenement where they engage in a brilliant verbal duel on a subject no less compelling than the meaning of life.

“Sunset Limited Pulses with Urgency”, “Lumbly makes the words sing…English stages the interplay as a tense psychological cat-and-mouse game and brings it to a compelling climax.” – Robert Hurwitt, San Francisco Chronicle

How to enter to win two tickets to “The Sunset Limited” at SF Playhouse on Wednesday, October 27th at 7pm, or Thursday October 28th at 8pm:

Winner will be chosen and contacted on Monday evening. Please be sure to tell us what day you would rather have the tickets (Wednesday or Thursday).

Ticket Giveaway: “Rain” @ Broadway San Jose, Opening Night – 10/26/10

15 Oct

The second show that Broadway San Jose is bringing to the Bay Area is called Rain: A Tribute to the Beatles. Bay Area audiences will have the unique opportunity to experience this multi-media Beatles tribute just as Broadway audiences are getting their first look (a production opens at the Neil Simon Theatre next week). The Denver Post calls it “the next best thing to seeing the Beatles,” Rain boasts a repertoire of nearly 200 Beatlemaniac favorites, ranging from such beloved songs as “Yesterday” and “Hey Jude” to classic hits including “Revolution” and “Come Together.”

Since I’ve never had the opportunity to hear the Beatles perform, I’m really looking forward to seeing this show! As always, the Broadway San Jose productions are only in town for one week, so you have to plan your week around it. It opens October 26th and they are out of here on Halloween.

Luckily, for you, The Broadway Critic is giving away two tickets to one lucky winner!

How to enter to win two tickets to “Rain” at Broadway San Jose on opening night, October 26th, 2010:

  • Comment, tweet or Facebook us and tell us your favorite Beatles song.

A winner will be chosen on Friday, October 22nd, 2010. They will be notified by way of entry (through email, Twitter or Facebook).

Ticket Giveaway: “Reasons to be Pretty” @ San Jose Stage Company

29 Sep

San Jose Stage Company’s Reasons to be Pretty starts previews tonight Wednesday, September 29th, 2010 with an opening on Saturday, October 2, 2010.

A 2009 Tony Award nominee for Best Play, Neil LaBute’s bristling new comedy puts a ferocious cap on a trilogy of plays that began with The Shape of Things and Fat Pig. America’s obsession with physical beauty is confronted headlong in this brutal and exhilarating work, in which a slip of the tongue has a tsunami effect on man’s relationships, romantic and otherwise. Simultaneously sentimental and uncompromising, Reasons To Be Pretty is a gorgeous play.

The cast features: Halsey Varady, Robert Brewer, Will Springhorn Jr. and Alison F. Rich.

Now you can win two tickets to see Reasons to be Pretty at San Jose Stage Company:

  • Comment, tweet or Facebook us and tell us an interesting fact about playwright, Neil LaBute.

Winner will be chosen on Friday, October 1, 2010.

**Winner can choose to use their free tickets on a Wednesday or Thursday performance during the run. Dates available: October 6, 7, 13, 14, 20, or 21.
