Check out these benefits:
Advance Notice
Because VLT shows are so popular, this is perhaps the main advantage of being a season ticket holder: you will receive advance notice of each show and may reserve your seats before tickets go on sale to the public. (You may also purchase additional tickets at full price when ordering, in case you want to bring friends and have them sit with you.) Sales to the public begin one week before each opening night.
Additional Shows
VLT does smaller shows in Stage Left (two are scheduled for this coming season), and season subscribers have first chance to reserve those tickets too.
Ticket Flexibility
Your season ticket stubs may be used one at a time or all at once (except only one ticket stub marked “musical” may be used for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), for any performance, either evenings or matinees. You choose the performance that’s best for you!
Assisted Listening Devices
VLT has 17 assisted listening devices, and season ticket holders have first opportunity to reserve these.
You’re Invited!
Each show will have an Opening Night Gala, with the audience invited to enjoy delicious refreshments in Stage Left with the cast after the show.
Order Today!
Your Season Tickets will be mailed to you in late September, along with your reservation form for the first production, Communicating Doors, which opens in October.
The Very Little Theatre 83rd SEASON 2011-2012
Communicating Doors
By Alan Ayckbourn, Directed by Karen Scheeland
October 14-16, 20-23, 27-29, 2011
A delightfully intriguing time traveling comic thriller that features an intricate mystery by the British master of farcical comedy. Poopay, a sexual consultant from the future, stumbles into a confession of murder that endangers her life and sends her, via a unique set of hotel doors, traveling back in time. She and two women from 1994 and 1974 try to rewrite history and prevent their own violent ends in a frantic race against time.
The Underpants
By Steve Martin, Directed by Johnny Ormsbee
January 13-15, 19-22, 26-28, 2012
A rollicking satirical farce adapted from the classic German play about Louise and Theo Markes, a couple whose conservative existence is shattered when Louise’s bloomers fall down in public. Theo is afraid the incident will cost him his job, but instead of scandal, Louise’s momentary display attracts two infatuated men, each of whom wants to rent a spare room in the Markes’ home. Oblivious of their amorous objectives, Theo splits the room between them.
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
By David Yazbeck & Jeffrey Lane, Directed by Chris Pinto
March 9-10, 15-18, 22-25, 29-31, 2012
The uproarious award-winning musical comedy and Broadway hit, based on the popular film about two con men living on the French Riviera. One is suave and sophisticated, the other a small-time swindler, and both make a living talking ladies out of their money. They make a bet about who will be the first to extract $50,000 from a young heiress. A hilarious battle of cons ensues that will keep you laughing, humming and guessing to the end.
Almost, Maine
By John Cariani, Directed by Michael P. Watkins
May 25-27, May 31-June 3, 7-9, 2012
On a cold, clear, moonless night in the middle of winter, all is not quite what it seems in the remote, mythical town of Almost, Maine. As the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, Almost’s residents find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected, poignant, and often funny ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend—almost—in this delightful and compelling midwinter night's dream.
Breath of Spring
By Peter Coke, Directed by Nancy Boyett
July 27-29, August 2-5, 9-11, 2012
A hilarious comedy! When Dame Beatrice is given a mink stole by her maid, Lily, she suspects it was stolen. To protect Lily, she and her “middle-aged” lodgers devise a plan to return the stole without being caught. The operation is so exhilarating they decide to continue the fun by stealing furs themselves and distributing the profits to charity. All goes well until Scotland Yard calls! The laughs build as they try to scheme their way out of being discovered.
Plus: Two Shows in STAGE LEFT!
Season subscribers have the first chance to reserve general admission tickets at $10 each for:

A middle-aged man entertains some important visitors from his past. But several of his guests are dead, and not all were invited! This will be a family reunion like no other. Will the host be able to make peace with the ghosts of his past ... and himself?
Completely Hollywood (Abridged)
By Reed Martin & Austin Tichenor
Directed by Adam Leonard
April 20-22, 26-29, 2012
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the theater! This zany comedy takes every cliché from every movie ever made (plus a few new ones) and condenses them into two side-splitting hours of fun
