A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder - Curtain at 1:30PM
Sat, Aug 8 · 1:00 PM EDT
Olney Theatre Center, 2001 Olney Sandy Spring Rd, Olney, MD, US
Join the group for A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder on Saturday, April 8 at 1:30PM. There are lots of seats available, so please review the availability at https://tickets.olneytheatre.org/gentlemansguide/96976 and comment below on your seating preference. We should be able to form at least 1 ticket block.

This Tony Award winner for Best Musical is a hilarious and lyrical satire of money, manners, morals, and, yes, murder. After his mother’s death, Monty Navarro is shocked and delighted to learn that she had a secret: she’s related to the absurdly wealthy and aristocratic D’Ysquith family. And if, at first, Monty hoped his new relations might provide a sorely needed cash infusion, as eighth in line to the title of Earl of Highhurst, there isn’t much hope for him inheriting the family treasure. When Monty’s reunion with one of his long-lost kinfolk suddenly results in him moving into seventh place, he wonders to himself, “Why stop there?” Thus begins one of the funniest and most outrageous murder sprees in musical theatre history. Even better, in this production, all seven ill-fated D’Ysquiths are played by DMV-favorite Tom Story (Mrs. Trunchbull in Matilda).

The Notebook - Curtain at 7:30PM
Sat, Aug 29 · 7:00 PM EDT
The National Theatre, 1321 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC, US
Join the group for The Notebook at the National Theatre on Saturday, August 29 at 7:30PM! Please comment below on your ticket location/price range preferences and whether you would like to gather for a pre-show drinks/dinner gathering.

Based on the best-selling novel that inspired the iconic film, THE NOTEBOOK tells the story of Allie and Noah, both from different worlds, who share a lifetime of love despite the forces that threaten to pull them apart. “Full of butterfly-inducing highs and beautiful songs” (Entertainment Weekly), THE NOTEBOOK is a deeply moving portrait of the enduring power of love.

Chris Jones of The Chicago Tribune says THE NOTEBOOK is “absolutely gorgeous, not to be missed,” and The New York Daily News calls it “a love story for the ages.”

THE NOTEBOOK is directed by Michael Greif (Dear Evan Hansen, Next to Normal, RENT) and Schele Williams (The Wiz, Aida), and features music and lyrics by multi-platinum singer-songwriter Ingrid Michaelson, book by Bekah Brunstetter (NBC’s “This Is Us”), and choreography by Katie Spelman.

Come From Away - Curtain at 7:30PM
Fri, Sep 11 · 7:00 PM EDT
Ford's Theatre, 511 10th Street Northwest, Washington, DC, US
Join the group in recognizing the 9/11 anniversary as we experience Come From Away at Ford's Theatre at 7:30PM.

Group tickets remaining:

Orchestra B11 and 13: $45 each

Balcony E 6-10: $37 each

NOTE: If there's interest from folks in going on a different day, I can set up a Doodle poll to schedule that alternative option. I won't be able to get group tickets for that date as well, though.

Ten years after making its Ford’s Theatre debut, Tony Award-winning Come From Away returns to our historic stage and tells the heart-warming true story of how a small Canadian town cared for 6,579 airline passengers stranded there on 9/11. When 38 planes were diverted to its doorstep, the town of Gander doubled in size, playing host to an international community of strangers and offering food, shelter and friendship. Featuring a rousing score of folk and rock, Come From Away honors the better angels of our nature, revealing hope and humanity in a time of darkness.

Bonnie & Clyde - Curtain at 3PM
Sun, Sep 20 · 2:30 PM EDT
Thomas Jefferson Community Theatre, 125 S Old Gelbe Rd, Arlington, VA, US
Join the group for The Arlington Players' production of Bonnie & Clyde on Sunday, September 20 at 3PM. Please review the ticket options at https://app.arts-people.com/?show=346697 and comment below on your seating location preference so we can form a ticket block. I'm pretty sure there aren't any steps in the Orchestra--just ramps.

NOTE: This is a community theatre (not a professional) production.

At the height of the Great Depression, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow went from two small-town nobodies in West Texas to America's most renowned folk heroes and Texas law enforcement's worst nightmares. Bonnie & Clyde is the electrifying story of love, adventure, and crime that captured the attention of an entire country.
