WHAT IS TEENTIX LA?
TeenTix LA is a youth development nonprofit organization that has been making arts and culture accessible to teenagers. TeenTix LA exists to break down the barriers that prevent teens from accessing art in our community, such as ticket or admission cost, not knowing where to look for events, navigating transportation around the city, and feeling insecure around arts-going if there's no one in their lives already championing the arts. Through our cornerstone program - The TeenTixPass Program - teens can sign up for a FREE Pass that allows teenagers to purchase $5 day-of event tickets.HOW DO I GET MY TICKETS?
Teens (age 13-19) can sign up for a TeenTixPass. Once you've signed up for a Pass, you're eligible for $5 tickets to the Geffen Playhouse. Directly on TeenTix LA's events calendar, you can learn more about Geffen events and get access to a Geffen code that becomes active 24 hours before each show. Use that code directly on our website to purchase a $5 ticket for any seat in the house. Just bring your TeenTixPass and your student ID to the box office to pick up your ticket. You can also purchase your $5 ticket using your TeenTixPass at the box office on the day of each show, beginning at 12 pm (subject to availability). Wednesdays are 2 for $10 tickets for teens who want to bring a companion of any age with them to see the show.
Developed for the Dramatists Guild of America members, Playwrights Welcome is a national ticketing initiative created by Samuel French along with Concord Theatricals' sister companies R&H Theatricals and Tams-Witmark, Dramatists Play Service, Dramatic Publishing, Music Theatre International, and Playscripts. The goal is simple: to provide free access to theatre for playwrights, composers and lyricists. We are invested in the success and artistic health of our industry’s writers, and by extension the vibrancy of the American theatre. We’re also aware that attending theatre is an integral part to how writers learn their craft and grow as artists.
Geffen Playhouse is proud to take part in Playwrights Welcome, which offers available tickets to professional playwrights on the day of a performance, free of charge. To receive a ticket through Playwrights Welcome at the Geffen, please contact the box office in person or by phone (310.208.2028) on the day of the performance you’d like to attend. Please note that a Dramatists Guild membership card is required to pick up tickets, and there is a limit of two free tickets per member. Available while supplies last.
