There's going to be some amazing deals on all kinds of great stuff this Black Friday. You're probably taking advantage of quite a few of them.

But how about a great deal on world changing ideas and heartwarming experiences?

For 24 hours only from Midnight to Midnight on November 28^th (Black Friday) we'll be offering $20 tickets to the Saturday November 29^th performance of Bucky and the Sunday, December 7^th evening performance of A Christmas Carol- That's more than half off the regular price! And on date night! What a deal!

Planning to stay home to avoid the crowds? No problem! The deal's available online through www.pcs.org- just enter the promo code "Turkey" to get the special price.

We guarantee both shows will fit perfectly, go with everything in your home, have minimal packaging (but spectacular production values) and a very low carbon footprint.

Most importantly, we think you'll find them a great way to recharge your batteries and refresh your spirit during the upcoming marathon holiday shopping season.

See you at the theater!
