Just for Penn students, “Ben’s Tix” is a ticket subsidy program designed to make Penn Presents’ events more financially accessible to students. The title of the program coincides with Philadelphia’s 300th birthday celebration of Penn founder Benjamin Franklin.
“Ben’s Tix” will be launched on Monday, November 21, selling $10 tickets for Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre of London’s Measure for Measure. “Ben’s Tix” will return on January 30 and January 31. $10 tickets will be sold for 12 events, scheduled for February through April 2006.
On the three days “Ben’s Tix” are sold, the Box Office hours will be open additional hours, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. For more information call (215) 898-3900, or visit www.pennpresents.org.
