Rogers Park Theatres Offer Season Flex Pass
Four Rogers Park area theatres, Lifeline Theatre, Raven Theatre, the side project, and Theo Ubique Cabaret Theatre, join together for the third year to offer a flexible subscription pass to see a variety of Rogers Park productions throughout the season, running from August 1, 2010 to July 31, 2011. Dubbed "Chicago's answer to off-Broadway" by the Chicago Sun-Times, the foursome garnered ten non-Equity Jeff Awards out of 30 nominations during the 2009-2010 season and wanted to share their neighborhood commitment to excellence with the entire community, by offering this discounted pass with up to 35% savings over regular single tickets.
The $50, four-show pass - good for one adult or kids show, anytime during the season, at each of the four participating theatres (offer does not include participant shows in venues outside Rogers Park) - is available at each theatre's box office, and at www.rogersparkflexpass.com. The pass is business card-sized to be kept throughout the season, punched when used at each theatre, and displayed at each restaurant when a discount is requested.Lifeline Theatre • 6912 N.

Glenwood Avenue Arts District, in the heart of Rogers Park, features numerous artist studios, music venues, theatres and restaurants and is fast becoming known as a vibrant and unique arts destination. The Chicago Sun-Times writes, "Maybe the time has come to dub Glenwood Avenue in the Rogers Park neighborhood as Chicago's answer to off-Broadway. Certainly that's the conclusion to be reached if you tally up the nominations for the Non-Equity Jeff Awards" Chicago Magazine (October 2008) added, "For pure Chicago heart, soul and polished grit, the Glenwood Avenue Arts District in Rogers Park is our favorite new destination."
