The USC West Los Angeles club has secured a LIMITED number of discounted Orchestra-level tickets to see the Tony and Grammy award-winning musical Wicked at the Pantages Theatre on Thursday, January 19, 2012 at 8:00 pm. Wicked is a fresh, spunky, and humorous take on The Wizard of Oz, providing us with the backstory of how the Wicked Witch of the West and the Good Witch of the North evolve from college roommates to fierce rivals.
Full-priced tickets for this show range from $115-$400, but with our special USC discount, they are available to you for only $65.00 each (over half off!!). Isn’t it good to be a Trojan?
We will also be hosting a pre-show mixer from 6:00-7:30 at Wood and Vine restaurant (only steps away from the theatre), where you will receive a special Happy Hour menu. More details on the pre-show mixer to come.
So, grab a date or group of friends and plan for a fun night out on the town before these HOT TICKETS MELT AWAY like the Wicked Witch!
