SAN DIEGO — Just when you thought America’s Finest City couldn’t get any finer, it just did! Not only do we have the country’s best weather, Museum Month at Balboa Park, and world-class surfing, but now March has a new moniker — San Diego Theatre Month.

Eight years ago, San Diego trotted out the idea of a theatre week to expose more San Diegans and our visitors to great live performances. Jay Henslee, president of the San Diego Performing Arts League, a non-profit dedicated to performing arts organizations, is introducing a streamlined approach to getting the best seats available for performances for as little as $15, $30 or $45. These prices are intended to encourage patrons to see multiple shows for the price of just one.

The participating local theatres include Broadway San Diego, Theatre for Young Professionals, Patio Playhouse, Scripps Ranch Theatre, North Coast Repertory Theatre, The Rady Shell, San Diego Symphony, San Diego Junior Theatre, OnStage Playhouse, San Diego Musical Theatre, Lamb’s Players Theatre, The Roustabouts Theatre, City Ballet of San Diego, Center Stage Productions, Star Theatre, San Diego Actors Theatre, The Old Globe, New Village Arts, Coronado Playhouse, Backyard Renaissance, Trinity Theatre Company, San Diego Shakespeare Society, Oceanside Theatre Company, San Diego Master Chorale, Moxie Theatre, Malashok Dance, PowPAC, CCAE Theatricals, La Jolla Playhouse, Scripteasters, Lamplighters Theatre, Cygnet Theatre, San Diego Opera, San Diego Ballet, Grossmont College Performing Arts Center, and Poway Center for the Performing Arts.

Tickets will go on sale on February 13 and can be purchased using just one convenient website. Please visit www.sandiegotheatremonth.com.
