April 2012: Vincent River by Philip Ridley


Vincent River is being performed in multiple homes in and around Boston throughout the month of April.  Each performance
will be in a different location.  See the schedule of public performances below to choose your night and location.  
General Show Information

• Tickets for all public performances are $25.   Due to the extremely limited seating capacity of the venues, we are not able to offer any discounted tickets.
• Tickets must be purchased in advance - there are no door sales.  (Oddly, none of our home venues has a built-in box office).
• Due to the nature of these performances, there is absolutely no late seating.  No exceptions, no refunds, do not pass Go, do not collect $200. Seriously, don't be late - we don't want you to miss this incredible experience.  There are detailed directions for each venues provided below.  So make sure you know where you're going and leave extra time to get there.  We recommend arriving 30 minutes prior to curtain.  
• Cigarettes will be smoked during the performance.
