Thanks for the information. Please tell us non-students if there is any chance tickets can be purchased without having to go through the great-evil-Ticketmaster. I so want to see the show, but long ago swore I would never buy another ticket through TM. Help!?

Great news! There is a way to buy tickets without using TM. Actually, tickets are not available through Ticketmaster. Beginning Monday, March 17, go to www.gustavustickets.com to purchase tickets for the show. There will be a small convenience fee, but that amount will only be a fraction of the ticket.

If you know of anyone that goes to Gustavus, they will be able to purchase tickets for others beginning on Monday as well. Those tickets are $15 and do not have a convenience fee attached. Addtionally, if tickets remain, they will be sold at the door, but the way sales have been going, it would be wise to get your ticket soon!
