A Special Arcadia’s Best VIP Ticket will be displayed which gives you a $30 VIP ticket for only $15. This VIP ticket means you can sit in the roped-off VIP section – ushers will be checking each ticket before they admit someone to the VIP seating area.

The play begins with a man falling and breaking his hip on the doorstep of the home of a man and his wife. With a broken hip, which results in him being restricted to a wheelchair, he bosses everyone around and winds up accumulating an octopus, four penguins, a cockroach farm, and a mummy case, as well as the anger of his reluctant hosts.

A VIP ticket means:

  1. No standing in the General Admission line

  2. Enter the theatre before the General Admission ticket holders if you arrive 30-minutes before show time

  3. VIP section tickets will be held in the front roped-off section until 15-minutes before show time.

There are only 150 tickets available for this special deal so you might want to get your tickets before they are all gone! Each ticket sold also contains special coupons worth $100 off at local restaurants. Below is a list of the discounts on the tickets so you can see all the great discounts your ticket provides you.
