Ken Davenport and Robyn Goodman, in association with Walt Grossman, Ruth Hendel, Sharon Karmazin, Matt Murphy and Mark Shacket, have announced that Altar Boyz, the acclaimed musical comedy at New World Stages, winner of the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Musical Off-Broadway, will begin offering the AltarCard, a pass that allows an audience member to see Altar Boyz as many times as they like in the month of May, for only $199. 

The May AltarCard is available for purchase now at the New World Stages Box Office. "The card has been tried out on an experimental basis, offered to the Altarholics only, to great success.  It will now be available to anyone," press materials state.

Producer Ken Davenport explains, "Altar Boyz is blessed to have a devoted following of theatergoers coming back to see the show several times a week and we wanted to make it easier and more affordable for them.  With the AltarCard, we're giving fans of the theater an affordable option to seeing great LIVE entertainment as often as they want."

Altar Boyz, the acclaimed musical comedy, winner of the 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, 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."  The show is currently in the midst of its National Tour; upcoming cities include San Francisco, Tempe, Honolulu, Pittsburgh and Wilmington. Altar Boyz is currently enjoying its European Premiere at the Thalia Theatre in Budapest, Hungary since March 23rd.  

Altar Boyz features Landon Beard, Zach Hanna, Kyle Dean Massey, Eric Schneider and Shaun Taylor-Corbett, and is directed by Stafford Arima and choreographed by Christopher Gattelli. Altar Boyz has music & lyrics by Gary Adler and Michael Patrick Walker with book by Kevin Del Aguila, based on a concept by Marc Kessler and Ken Davenport.
