Altar Boyz Tour - Articles Page 12

Ken Davenport and Robyn Goodman are proud to announce that Altar Boyz (www.altarboyz.com), the acclaimed musical comedy about to begin its 5th year at New World Stages, will make tickets available to anyone regardless of the amount they can pay. For the Wednesday, January 21st (8 PM performance), tickets will be available on a first-come/first-served basis, for whatever you feel you can afford. ('Pay What You Can' tickets will go on sale at 7PM for that evening's performance*). 'These are tough times, everyone knows that. So many people are worrying about money. But these are exactly the times when people need to get out of their homes, get together with friends and family and laugh their you-know-whats off. All of us at Altar Boyz wanted everyone to have that chance without having to worry about money,' said producer Ken Davenport. Altar Boyz, the acclaimed musical comedy, winner of the 2005 Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Musical Off-Broadway, is the longest running new musical comedy to open in New York in years! Full of sharp parody, sinfully spectacular dancing, and irreverent humor, this spoof about a heavenly guy-group is adored by audiences and critics alike. With an extraordinary mix of side-splitting songs 'convincing enough to be played on MTV,' uncontrollable laughs and lighthearted fun, this award-winning and totally original new musical is '90 minutes of pure delight' that's suitable for all ages and will have 'the whole family laughing and singing along.' Altar Boyz is in the midst of its Second National Tour. Altar Boyz enjoyed its Asian premiere in Seoul, South Korea, its Australian premiere in Sydney, and its European premiere in Budapest. Productions will be opening shortly in Tokyo and the Philippines.
