Maybe it's just me, but I would never subscribe to a theatrical season just for one specific show - that's what single ticket sales are for.
I only have two theatrical subscriptions, both because I want to support the companies and because I trust them to occasionally surprise me with something unexpectedly brilliant. Just this year, I was not looking forward to either LIGHT YEARS at DC's Signature Theatre or Encores!' GRAND HOTEL. Both productions quickly overcame my skepticism and I wound up loving them both.
I remember when Signature staged THE LAST FIVE YEARS as a last-minute replacement for CRIMES OF THE HEART. Thanks to the two leads, I found myself enjoying YEARS for the first time ever. So, ya never know! |
