Trio of Theatres Present 'The Downtown 3' Partnership & Discounts
3 LD Art and Technology Center, Dance New Amsterdam (DNA) and HERE Arts Center proudly announce THE DOWNTOWN 3, a partnership offering audiences an affordable way to experience cutting-edge performance in Lower Manhattan's alternative arts scene.
These three leading Lower Manhattan institutions are united by a shared aesthetic and artistic philosophy, which merges dance, theatre, and technology to create new and innovative modes of expression. By purchasing The Downtown 3 Punchcard, audience members receive deeply discounted admission to all three venues, offering audiences an affordable way to experience risk-taking performance in Lower Manhattan's alternative arts scene.
Purchased online or at any of the three venues' box offices for only $33, The Downtown 3 Punchcard is used to reserve one ticket at each venue for select performances. With discounts averaging 60% off the full ticket price, Punchcard holders pay only $11 per ticket. An additional savings is available for purchasing two Punchcards, $30 per Punchcard, or $10 per ticket. The Downtown 3 Punchcard will be available on January 1, 2008 and is valid for select performances for all of 2008.

Purchasers of the Downtown 3 Punchcard can use them at many offerings from the upcoming seasons at 3 LD Art and Technology Center, Dance New Amsterdam and HERE Arts Center. For example, for only $11 each, audience members can enjoy performances of 3-Legged Dog's hotly anticipated upcoming premiere of Charles L. Mee's Fire Island (regular ticket price $30); DNA's OB·ject.ob·JECT, highlighting women choreographers and featuring Vanessa Justice, Nicole Wolcott and The Doorknob Company (regular ticket price $20); and HERE's production of Oph3lia, a new work by HERE's Resident Artist Aya Ogawa, which will open their newly renovated facility in June 2008 (regular ticket price $18).
The Downtown 3 initiative is made possible, in part, by the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council with the generous support of The September 11th Fund; and the Fund for the City of New York's Performing Arts Initiative.
