Tickets to RACE on Broadway NYC for $79.50 Orch or $59.50 Mezzanine – EXP 3/14/2010

cheapskatLeave a comment

BroadwayOffers.com is offering 35% off tickets to RACE on Broadway at the Barrymore Theatre for a limited time. $59.50 for Mezzannine seats and $79.50 (regularly $121.50) for Orch & Front Mezzanine seats. To get discount, visit BroadwayOffers.com or call 212-947-8844 and mention code: RADML14. Limited to 8 tickets per purchase. No exchange or refunds. Deal expires March 14, 2010 or while tickets are still available.

Written and directed by David Mamet, Race is about three lawyers—two partners, one African-American, one white, and their young, African-American law clerk—who are deciding whether or not to take the case of wealthy white man accused of raping an African-American woman. The play, like the case, is not open and shut. Shame, guilt, class, sex, lies and, of course, race, are all provocatively stirred together in this fast-paced show that will probably leave theatergoers dissecting and discussing it long after the curtain goes down. As the playwright wrote in a recent essay about his work, “Race, like sex, is a subject on which it is near impossible to tell the truth.” Audience members will undoubtedly bring their own set of judgments and preconceptions into this work that delves into a most complicated and fraught subject.
