It didn't take long after all...



In the last Patter Post, I lauded the achievement of selling out not one but two performances, in early August, of our most recent Discovery Series production, Florodora, and called on us to do it again sometime. Some scoffed, on the grounds that I was comparing apples to oranges: Florodora had had only two performances in a small theater, and we could never sell out our much larger main venue, the Montgomery.

And then came the final matinee performance of Cinderella on October 11. Packed to the rafters, parents and tearful children being turned away at the door because we had no more seats to sell.

See that photo at the top of this post? That's what a sold-out Lyric Theatre show at the Montgomery looks like.

Let's do it again!
