Spend Halloween on Broadway: Portland Center Stage | $10 Secret Code

Ok, now it is not a secret. :)  Look what I found while roaming the nets and twitterverse. Half off the current shows at Portland Center Stage for Halloween, plus complimentary beer & wine, a party and costume contest after!!!

I saw Bucky the other night and it was a great show, and really perfect for the current issues facing this time. You can see it or Guys and Dolls on Halloween for only $10 with these “secret codes”. that's is less than half the normal price. Awesome!

Information from Portland Center Stage:
Portland Center Stage, Halloween discount

Bust out your Liza Minelli costume because you are cordially invited to spend Halloween on Broadway with Portland Center Stage.

Dress up like your favorite Broadway character and get $10 tickets to the Halloween performance of Guys & Dolls or R. Buckminster Fuller: THE HISTORY (and Mystery) OF THE UNIVERSE. Then stay for the party and enjoy complimentary beer from Deschutes Brewery, as well as wine and a few treats, and a costume contest (judged by the Portland Center Stage costume shop) where you could win a pair of “Broadway at Home” season passes to PCS. It's the most fun you can have off stage this Halloween.

Enter the secret code SPOOKY to get your $10 Guys & Dolls.
Enter the secret code BOO to get your $10 Bucky. (got an email, both codes are now Spooky)

PS. If you see Bucky, don't foget to grab a Buckyball (made by Teardrop Lounge).

“Portland's Japanese Gardens. Another view of this much photographed maple. There is a sense of magic under the canopy of this tree.”

This is one of many great fall pictures of the Japanese Gardens floating around flickr, and one of my favorites. Fall is the perfect time to visit the gardens and see these amazing colors. There is also a free day on November 11.
