Do you know how future Pay What You Can performances at Studio are scheduled? I can't never find out until its too late...
Studio Theater PWYC performances are usually the first Saturday matinee of the show.
I'll post more about Studio up top of the blog. Thanks for asking--I only found out by calling the box office! I'm a subscriber but get few communications (postcards, e-mails) from them. Still, the play's the thing and they've done some wonderful shows (Fat Pig) this season.
