Into the Woods - Affordable Swanking
 

The historic Gem theater in Garden Grove is showing "Into the Woods" starting this weekend, running until July 19th.

I've yet to attend one of their shows, but they seem popular every time we go by.

So, would anyone like to join us for a show? Cost is only $20 per ticket and can be ordered online at this link:

Tickets and Show Info

The theater is on Main St. in Garden Grove, and within very short walking distance from a few great restaurants.

So, if you'd like to go, please select a date in the poll and let's see about meeting up for dinner prior too! (If we pick a Friday or Saturday night, we could always walk over to Azteca for drinks and free karaoke after too.)

There are also Thursday night performances as well, but I didn't include those in the poll, figuring they wouldn't be considered. But, if that's a night you can make it, then please post!

Tom and I are both Sondheim maniacs and try to catch every production of his shows that go up locally. So we're definitely interested.

We're unfortunately only available for the 3rd or 5th. Weekday nights are out (except the 3rd which we have off) because I never know when I'll be done at work, and anything after the 9th is out because ItW isn't really his cup of tea. Hope we can catch it alongside of all of you!

Thanks for coming up with this idea - sounds fun.

Hopefully, most can make it on the 3rd or 5th. I figure those are good dates, since a lot of people will be in town and such. :)

Once we get closer, I'll post up the local restaurant menus. There's a new place just opening up a few doors down from Azteca.

Have to see what I'm scheduled to work and go from there. If it works out that I'm off I will join you guys for sure.

That's close to my work...

I'm interested, but I don't know about Mr Bill.

Same boat as Wolfy... I love Into The Woods, but gotta wait till schedules come out. Fridays are better for me because I am not obligated to the Mouse on Fridays. Oddly enough, the 3rd might work :)

Is it 1st come, 1st served seating? Or assigned? (never know with local theaters, could go either way)

Would love to join the group, but all free time in July is pre-committed to family visiting from Alaska. See y'all in August!

Darn I always miss all the fun stuff - we're moving all through that time so I'm out.

Everyone's coming to help move right? ;)

dang, I was hoping this was a 'cheapskate camping trip' thread.

I called and the box office won't be open with a live person until tonight. We're walking right past there tonight, so I'll stop and check, but the website says "General Admission" which usually means first-come, first-served. I'll also ask about group rates. :)

Oh, and they changed the end date to the 12th, not the 19th, so it's good I didn't list those.
