MBS Productions Announce 2017-18 Season and Punch Card
By: BWW News Desk Jul. 07, 2017
This is how the 6 admissions punch card works:
You will receive a punch card allowing you 6 admissions to any of the performances of your choice. You can come see each show once, bring five friends along with you to see just one show, see three shows twice, etc. This card gives you the flexibility to bring guests with you, or you can give it to a friend to use if you can't come. If you were to pay full price and came on all our Saturday shows you would be spending in excess of $155 for the 6 tickets. We also give our Punch Card holders priority seating as long as you reserve your seats in advance. For the 7 Plays in 7 Days festival, just present your card and we'll punch it only once and it'll admit you to all 7 plays!
You can purchase the season punch card on line at www.MBSProductions.net or purchase over the phone by calling call 214-477-4942. Purchase by 7/15/17 and pay only $100!
