Night Tix for High Schools


Designed by and for high school teachers! Tickets for evening shows with educational content are now available at $15/seat for high school groups for whom it’s hard to secure bussing or get students excused from other classes during the school day. Seating is more limited than for daytime matinees, so order early. See the insert in your brochure for more detail, call Frankie (Student Matinee Series Coordinator) at 802-652-4571, or visit our website at www.flynncenter.org.
