Leave high gas prices behind and come down to Long Wharf Theatre, one of the nation's leading regional theatres, to experience the magic and fun of live performance at an affordable cost. From Monday, August 18 through Friday, August 22 all tickets for the musical comedy sensation Altar Boyz will be on sale for only $25 - more than half off the regular price of $46! Regular tickets to Late Nite Catechism, an audience favorite back for its third season at Long Wharf Theatre, will also be only $25. The discounted tickets will only be available for a short time, so contact the Long Wharf Theatre box office at 203-787-4282. # # # LONG WHARF THEATRE, founded in 1965, is recognized as a leader in American theater, producing fresh and imaginative revivals of classics and modern plays, rediscoveries of neglected works and a variety of world and American premieres.
