"This is a great time to renew to get your best seat location," says
Tracy Mitchell, Executive Director for
Bay Street Theater. "It is also a great gift to buy for birthdays or holidays, and to do now before prices go up, which will happen as soon as all the shows are announced. People always ask me, 'How do I know what I'm doing next summer?' We make it easy. You don't have to know your dates now. As a subscriber you can wait to pick your dates next spring. And even then you can change them without hassle. But the first folks to purchase get first dibs on their preferred seats and dates."
In addition to best seat locations, subscribers also receive free ticket exchange privileges, priority access to single tickets and special early access to performances and of course, a fun subscribers party.
