With off-Broadway shows skyrocketing toward Broadway-like prices, it’s getting harder and harder to find a good bargain out there. But it doesn’t get much better than the annual 20at20 promotion, which begins today and runs through February 6, two weeks of thirty-one off-Broadway productions offering twenty-dollar tickets available twenty minutes before showtime. Among this year’s participants are A PERFECT FUTURE at the Cherry Lane Theatre, ANGELINA BALLERINA THE MUSICAL at the Union Square Theatre, PLAY DEAD at the Players Theatre, BLACK ANGELS OVER TUSKEGEE at the Actors’ Temple Theatre, STOMP at the Orpheum, FREUD’S LAST SESSION at the Marjorie S. Deane Litle Theater, LOVE, LOSS, AND WHAT I WORE at the Westside Theatre, and THE FLYING KARAMAZOV BROTHERS at the Minetta Lane Theatre. Just walk up to the box office twenty minutes before curtain (or earlier, since there is sure to be a line) and say “20 at 20” to get your ticket to that night’s show; it’s one per customer (make sure you have cash in case they’re not accepting credit cards), and the number of $20 tickets is limited and not guaranteed for every performance.
