Ticket Giveaway for the Broadway Tour of COMPANY at the Orpheum Theatre!

The five-time Tony-winning revival of the late, great Stephen Sondheim's 1970 musical Company is coming to the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis for one week only. The musical features Bobbie (originally a male character and now female) as she celebrates her 35th birthday, and explores love, life, and relationships through vignettes with her married friends (read my review of the Broadway production here). It opens the day after my 16th 35th birthday*, so to celebrate, I'm offering one lucky reader two free tickets to the show on November 14! Simply fill out this form by November 3, and that lucky reader could be you!

Company has 8 performances at the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Minneapolis, November 14-19. Click here for more info on the show and to purchase tickets.

*Let me do the math for you: it's 50. I'm turning 50! And how many times do you get to celebrate turning 50?!
