Springfield Contemporary Theatre Introduces “Pay What You Can Thursdays”

June 06, 2018


Springfield Contemporary Theatre’s (SCT) exceptional group of staff and artists believes that art is for everyone. The theatre serves to create a community-wide dialogue, creating some of the area’s most creative, thought-provoking productions. Those productions just got a lot more accessible with the introduction of the theatre’s new Pay What You Can program.

The program invites patrons to “pay what they can” for any Thursday evening 7:30 performance. According to a recent SCT release, Pay What You Can tickets will be available for purchase on the evening of performances from 6:30 to 7:20 p.m. Audiences are required to pay a minimum of just one dollar for tickets, making this a great way to witness some of the area’s most thought-provoking theatre.

There are a few stipulations: Tickets may not be reserved in advance, and they must be purchased at SCT’s Box Office. Tickets also may not be purchased in the 10-minute window before showtime to help ensure performances will begin on time.

SCT is kicking off its 24th season this summer with “A Grand Night For Signing: The Music of Rodgers and Hammerstein.” See the theatre’s full schedule here.
