Maybe it’s just the Stephen King fangirl in me or my love for the genius that is Kent Gash, but I’m super-excited about the upcoming Alliance Theatre season. Of course, purchasing a season ticket will get you the best seats in the house, but if you’re a commitment-phobe, single tickets now are available by calling the box office at 404-733-5000 or visiting alliancetheatre.org. For premium seats, call 404-733-4600 or visit alliancetheatre.org/seasontickets.
