Listen for the Light by Kara Lee Corthron

An historical drama where faith and freedom collide while America’s identity is still being forged.

Listen for the Light by Kara Lee Corthron
directed by Tamara Winters

World Premiere!

April 21 – May 13, 2017

A former slave with a tragic past questions his faith, a powerful man fights his inner and outer demons, and a precocious young woman locked in a room reluctantly awaits word from God.

It’s 1844 and in the small town of Nauvoo, Illinois, Joseph Smith—Mormon prophet—rules all. Or so he believes.

Know Theatre is thrilled to produce the World Premiere of this play by award-winning playwright Kara Lee Corthron, originally commissioned by South Coast Rep.

10 words or less: Faith and freedom collide in this historical drama.

Rated: PG-13.

ADMISSION INFO

Know Theatre strives to structure our ticket pricing in a way that makes theatre accessible to everyone who wants to see a show. And we’re switching to a new online box office that makes it easier than ever to manage tickets on your own time, outside of our normal box office hours.

Here’s the breakdown.

Mainstage Tickets: $25

Guarantee a reserved seat for most of our Mainstage Productions for just a couple bucks more than it would cost to see a 3D Imax Showing of Godzilla. Added bonus: our popcorn is cheaper!

Rush Tickets: $15

If you’re short on funds, arrive an hour before show time to get on our waiting list. If there’s a seat available 15 minutes before the show starts, we’ll sell you a ticket for $15. Just promise us that if you like the show, you’ll tell fifteen friends.

6 ticket Flex-pass: $110

For the frugally minded who want to plan ahead: you can get a flex pass that allows you to reserve seats for performances at the low-low price of $18.33 a ticket. Such deal! So much wow.

Second Stage/Presented Events/Fringe Encores Tickets: $15

Sometimes we do shows outside of our MainStage programming, usually on the cabaret stage in our bar, the Underground, but sometimes in other locations. And we also present shows by partner organizations on our stage. And each year we bring back some favorite shows from the Fringe to do Encores! Get tickets to those events for $15.

Membership: $250/year

We know you love theatre. But if you really love theatre, here’s a fantastic way to support us, and get some great benefits. Our membership program is part traditional subscription, part NPR style sustaining membership, and all awesome. Find out more HERE.

 

Exchange/Refund policy: 

While we do our best to accommodate ticket exchanges (We understand! Life happens!) we cannot guarantee any exchanges and we are unable to offer refunds on tickets sold.
