The Wilbur Invites Boston to Experience an Open House Weekend with Ten-Dollar Tuesday Tickets

BOSTON - Oct. 2, 2014 - PRLog -- WHAT:          On Tuesday, October 7th, 2014, The Wilbur will be hosting a special 24-hour $10 ticket feeding frenzy on their weekend shows on Friday, October 17th, 2014 and Saturday, October 18th, 2014 as part of their Open House Weekend. “The idea is to get new people to experience the theatre.
