San Francisco Playhouse Offers FREE 'Shining City' Tickets to Voters

By:

The San Francisco Playhouse is offering FREE tickets to their production of SHINING CITY to anyone who votes today, November 4th. While their election day performance has been cancelled, voters can go to the box office and show their voting sticker to receive a free ticket for them and a friend to see the play before it closes on November 22nd, 2008.

Shining City is written by Conor McPherson and directed by Amy Glazer

Set in present-day Dublin a man seeks help from a counselor, claiming to have seen the ghost of his recently deceased wife. However, what begins as just an unusual encounter becomes a struggle between the living and dead-a struggle that will shape and define both men for the rest of their lives. In this contemporary ghost story, Conor McPherson explores what it means to lose faith-in God, in relationships and in one's self.
 
It was nominated for two Tony Awards, including best play.
