Hope your first month of class has been wonderful. With so much going on at BU, it\u2019s sometimes difficult to escape and experience things in the heart of Boston, off campus. <\/p>\n<p>I went to an arts high school, so theatre and ballet are close to my heart. A personal goal of mine is to see one piece of theatre per month off campus. There are a lot of great opportunities to see shows this semester, and at student rush ticket pricing it\u2019s very affordable! <\/p>\n<p>ArtsEmerson: https:\/\/artsemerson.org<br \/>\nSupported by Emerson College on Boylston Street, their mission is to strengthen the relationship between artists and audiences and help theatre make more of an impact on the community. They try to bring difference performances from other countries and cultures to broaden Boston\u2019s knowledge of theatre. This semester some performances are Traces, King Lear, The Magic Flute and The Trip to Bountiful. <\/p>\n<p>The Boston Ballet http:\/\/www.bostonballet.org<br \/>\n\tThe Boston Ballet makes ballet accessible to the community, educational for all audiences and creative through developing new methods and approaches while still keeping traditional style. There are student rush tickets, and constant performances throughout the semester. These performances include Swan Lake and Mikko Nissinen\u2019s The Nutcracker. <\/p>\n<p>The Lyric Stage Company of Boston http:\/\/www.lyricstage.com<br \/>\n\tThe Lyric Stage Company\u2019s mission is to present a wide variety of theatre to appeal to varying audiences in Boston. It\u2019s the oldest professional theatre in Boston with 40 years of production. Some shows for this season, which also provide student rush ticket opportunities, are Sweeny Todd, Dear Elizabeth and The Tale of the Allergist\u2019s Wife. <\/p>\n<p>While Boston has a great music and sports scene, I encourage you to try something new and experience a style of performance art that is different. After all, $20 tickets to a professional show that non-students pay hundreds for is an opportunity that shouldn\u2019t be passed up!<\/p>\n<p>Have a great semester \u263a <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey yall!
