Friday's Half-price Tickets

Anton in Show Business
6th @ PENN Theatre (Hillcrest)

A savvy, savage backstage comedy by Jane Martin. Winner of the American Theatre Critics Award - a hilarious, fast-paced and remorseless look into the world of theatre. Skewering incompetent producers, idiot directors, crass sponsors, self-important critics and high-maintenance actors, this award-winning play also doesn't shy away from the richer aspects of race, gender and social issues in the typical Jane Martin way.
Friday 8:00pm - $15.00 Available Now

The PGK Project
SDSU School of Music and Dance

String of Pearls
North Coast Repertory Theatre (Solana Beach)

Note: For mature audiences.
From the author of the hit comedy, "The Smell of the Kill," this radiant play explores the possibilities that unveil themselves in the lives of an array of women as they come into contact with a certain strand of pearls. A tour de force for four actresses playing twenty seven characters, we watch as something as simple as a timeless, classic piece of jewelry touches the lives of mothers and daughters, sisters and friends, and even husbands and wives, in this tale of love, loss, and humor.

Ten Minute Madness
GB Productions
at North Park Vaudeville and Candy Shoppe (North Park)

Enjoy seven, brand new short plays by playwrights from around the country presented by an ensemble cast.

Friday 8:00pm - $9.00 Available Now

This Is Our Youth
New Village Arts Theatre (Carlsbad)

It's the dawn of a new era - the Reagan era. And the Counter-Culture's kids are coming of age in New York City. Hilarious, insightful and poignant, Kenneth Lonergan's "This is Our Youth" gives us 48 hours in the lives of three kids caught in the moment between adolescence and adulthood when the ideals and values inherited from their parents will guide them toward self-discovery or push them to self-destruction.
Friday 8:00pm - $17.00 Available Now

Where There's a Will...There's a Wake!
Mystery Café Dinner Theatre
at Imperial House Restaurant (Uptown)

Set in a 20's speakeasy with such notorious gangster era characters as Ignacious "Sonny" Shoeleone, the bright and handsome heir apparent to the family empire, unless his siblings have their way; Frankie "Two Times" O'Malley--a thug who repeats everything twice, maybe even murder? And Lotta " Boom-Boom" Kreskin, a chanteuse who predicts the future, which doesn't look bright for several characters in this zany plot filled with gangsters, games and dames. This show includes entree choices. See www.mysterycafe.net for details.

Fences
Cygnet Theatre (College Area)

Cygnet Theatre Company's staged reading of "Fences" was very well received during their August Wilson series and now they are pleased to present the opportunity to see this powerful piece as a fully mounted production. This production stars Antonio T.J. Johnson and Sylvia M'Lafi Thompson and includes much of the same powerful cast in this Tony Award- and Pulitzer Prize-winning drama. Troy Maxson sees the world as composed mostly of fences which enclose him, but he does not realize that all the fences in his life are societal and that he is fencing in his family.
