Off-Broadway Week in New York: 25 shows with 2-for-1 tickets, from 5 to 18 October

Extraordinary talent, bold stories and unforgettable performances — all with half the price. BroadwayWorld announces that the new edition of “NYC Off-Broadway Week” starts today, 5 October, and lasts until 18 October, with 25 Off-Broadway productions offering “2-for-1” tickets.

The programme is presented by the organisation New York City Tourism + Conventions and this year includes 15 new productions, alongside well-known titles such as the musicals Heathers: The Musical and The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, the comedy The Play That Goes Wrong, as well as Drunk Dracula, Gazillion Bubble Show, Perfect Crime and Pre-Existing Condition.

“Off-Broadway Week highlights the extraordinary talent, the bold stories and the unforgettable performances that are found only on the stages of New York City,” declared Nancy Mammana, the chief marketing officer of New York City Tourism + Conventions, according to BroadwayWorld.

The organisation estimates that the initiative, launched in 2009, has so far generated over 6 million dollars in revenue for the city’s dynamic performing arts scene, opening the doors of Off-Broadway to new audiences year after year.
