Adapted by Eric Coble
Jonas’ world is perfect. Everything is under control and safe. There is no war or fear or pain. There are also no choices. Every person is assigned a role in the community. But when Jonas turns 12, he is chosen for special training from The Giver—to receive and keep the memories of the community. The Giver is the only person who holds the memories of real pain and real joy. Now Jonas will learn the truth about life—and the hypocrisy of his utopian world. Through this astonishing and moving adaptation, discover what it means to grow up, to grow wise, and to take control of your own destiny.

Ticket Policies:
ACCESS FOR ALL TICKETING!!
We believe that access to art is a human right – which is why we are piloting an ACCESS FOR ALL ticketing initiative for ALL SHOWS THIS SEASON.
Producing theater costs money, and ticket sales play a huge role in our ability to sustain our work! However, we also believe in allowing community members to choose the best / most appropriate ticket price for them. If folks who can pay a little more do, it will empower others to pay a little less when they need to. The outcome? Everyone will be able to attend the theater – and we’ll be able to keep the lights on.
ACCESS FOR ALL tickets will be reservable online on a sliding scale of $5-$55.
Additionally. 15% of the house will be held for walk-ups. Walk-up tickets will be available free-of-cost (although you are welcome to pay if you have the resources to)!
We can’t wait to see you at the theater!
All ticket sales are final. Tickets cannot be refunded.
Something come up? Tickets may be exchanged for another performance, as long as seats are still available. Tickets may be exchanged before the show for an exchange fee of $3 per ticket, but not after the performance date has passed.
In the event that you are ill, please stay home! We will gladly exchange your tickets to another performance of the same show with no fee.
Patrons can use a link in their ticket confirmation email to do a self-exchange or contact our box office.
You may also gift your tickets to anyone else who would like to use them.
Tickets may also be released and donated back to the theater.
Tickets may also be released and donated back to the theater, in which case you will receive a donation tax receipt.
Walk-up tickets are available the day of the performance in person at our box office, 1 hour prior to that performance.
Walk-up tickets are limited to 4 tickets per group.
