Have you ever wondered how Arena brings a production from the page to the stage? Curious about the particular challenges of producing a new play? In the spring of 2009, Arena Stage Artistic Director Molly Smith will direct the world premiere of Legacy of Light by Karen Zacarias, and the lucky winner will have a first-hand look at every step of the process. You and your guest will be invited to the First Rehearsal Presentation of this show, when the new cast, crew, and director come together for the first time to speak about their artistic vision.  Next, you will attend the exclusive Cast Welcome Party and have the chance to talk with cast and crew about the show and their experiences in an intimate and unique setting.  During the rehearsal process, you will watch an Open Rehearsal which will give you an inside look to the creative process. See the final product with two tickets to the show, a signed copy of the script and a poster signed by the cast of the show to commemorate your experience.

Terms and Conditions: Experience not transferable to other 2008/09 productions.
