WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Jeffrey Finn Productions presents the world premiere of Game Show, a new interactive comedy. The play is set during a "live broadcast" of a fictional, long-running TV game show, with the theater audience in the role of the TV studio audience. You may be picked as a contestant, play the trivia-based game, and take home a prize! In addition to watching and playing during the broadcast--where anything can and does happen--the audience also witnesses all the backstage, back-stabbing antics "behind the scenes" that go on during the "commercial breaks." The play is by Jeffrey Finn and Bob Walton, and directed by Mark Waldrop.
$15 student rush tickets can be purchased (subject to availability) 30 minutes prior to the performance.
