Ticket Discounts to Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol at The Shakespeare Tavern

Since I’ve slacked on taking the girls to a ‘traditional’ holiday show this season, I bought tickets to bring them to Shakespeare Tavern’s A Christmas Carol this week. We’ve seen a few stage versions of Charles Dickens’ classic, but this’ll be our first time seeing it at Shakespeare Tavern.

Want to go? A Christmas Carol runs through December 23, 2012. Though the best deals were available earlier in the month, you can still save on tickets to the final shows:

• On December 19 & 20, 2012, tickets are $22 for Balcony, $26 for Box, and $32 for Main. On December 21-23, 2012, prices jump to $24 for Balcony, $30 for Box, and $36 for Main.
• Check AtlanTIX for discount tickets to the remaining performances of A Christmas Carol; you’ll get the best deals for tonight & Thursday night, and you’ll find discounts for floor, balcony & box seats. Since there’s not a bad seat in the house, I bought us balcony seats for a weeknight show to get the best deal.

If you haven’t been to Shakespeare Tavern before, a tip: The food is quite good, too–the apple crisp served during intermission was worth every calorie. Yum. I’ll be introducing the girls to that dessert this week.

FYI re: parking: They’re enforcing the meters in front of the theatre, so your best bet is to park in the Emory parking deck across the street. If you give them your ticket stub when you leave, parking should be about $5.

The New American Shakespeare Tavern is located at 499 Peachtree St. NE, Atlanta. 404-879-5299.
