reminder: theater and chamber music outings this weekend

by Thomas Wisniewski

Dear Arts enthusiasts, There are only two tickets left for Saturday's outing to the Boston Playwrights' Theater. If you'd like to join us, be sure to stop by the Dudley House Office tomorrow or Friday. See below for relevant info. A reminder that there's also an outing to listen to the Harvard Baroque Chamber Orchestra on Sunday, November 18th, at 4pm. See below for details and be sure to RSVP to dudleyhouse.arts(a)gmail.com if you plan on attending. The play has received excellent reviews, and the concert promises to be beautiful. Please join us for either or both exciting events. Guests welcome. Cheers, Thomas -------------------- *Tickets on sale for The Sussman Variations at the Boston Playwrights' Theatre* Dudley House top floor Join us for a special Arts outing to the Boston Playwrights' Theatre. A limited number of discounted student tickets, $10 apiece, will go on sale beginning Wednesday, Oct. 24th, in the Dudley House office, 9am-5pm. We continue our 31st season of new plays in Boston with Obie award-nominated playwright Richard Schotter's The Sussman Variations. Broadway composer Charlie Sussman's got it made. He's turning 75, and thankfully his family is joining in the celebration. Or maybe that's the problem. His kids resent his second wife, his son Jonathan is at war with his daughter about her college essay and with his wife about everything, Charlie's daughter has a secret of her own, and all of them resent Charlie for leaving their mother. Oh, and nobody wants to hear the songs from his latest musical. If only Charlie could rewrite the libretto for his life, maybe he'd be able to celebrate. Original music by Phil Schroeder and lyrics by Richard Schotter. WHERE: Boston Playwrights' Theatre -- Walcott Theatre 949 Commonwealth Avenue Boston, MA 02215 Read more: http://boston.broadwayworld.com/article/Boston-Playwrights-Theatre-Presents… *Sunday 11/18* -------------------- *Arts Outing, Baroque Chamber Music* 4:00pm-5:30pm Arts Outing Harvard Baroque Chamber Orchestra Fall Concert Sunday, November 18, 4pm The Memorial Church, Harvard Yard Join us for a late afternoon of Baroque chamber music right on Harvard Yard.
