A Play at the Wyly on the Cheap: Fat Pig for $5 (Or Less)

One of the best deals in this city (besides the $2.50 happy hour hamburger at Dakota’s) is the Dallas Theater Center’s Pay What You Program. Neil LaBute’s Fat Pig (part of the Beauty Plays trilogy), directed by Kevin Moriarty, opens in previews tomorrow night. Normally tickets run $15 to $40. But tomorrow, if you walk up the box office, beginning at 10 a.m., you pay what you can. Note: it’s not Pay As Little as You Want. If you’re a Booker T student, sure, buy a ticket for $5. But all you trust fund layabouts out there, don’t abuse the muse. If you can pay more, please do so. (In fact, Jacob Cigainero, the DTC’s PR puck, tells me that they make less money than they normally would when they run this program.) For more details, go here.
