A(Partment 8), the first show produced by ABC Project, has been receiving outstanding reviews from both critics and audience members. The show sold out of its run within 24hours of opening night. The demand to see A(Partment 8) keeps growing and despite having a standby list have only been able to get 1-2 extra audience members per evening to see performances of this intimate immersive theater piece. All involved with Annie Lesser’s ABC Project want everyone to see the show that wants to see it, but are limited by schedules and financial constraints.

Because of this ABC Project is going to have a special 1 night encore on Monday June 27th. The 12 tickets/timeslots to that evening’s performances will be given to the top 12 donors to ABC Project’s Go Fund Me between tomorrow, June 14th at 12:01 AM PST and Sunday June 26th. 11:59 PM PST.

The standby wait list is still always an option for those really desperate to see A(Partment 8). Standby starts taking names at 8pm performance nights on the NW corner of Satna Monica and Lillian. The remaining performance nights (outside the special encore) are June 14, 21, 23 and 25.

“Lesser not only successfully implicates audience members in their own sundry crimes of the heart but opens a space between empathy and horror for something more critically and morally contemplative.” – Stage Raw

“Those looking for a darkly original work that sticks with you long after it’s finished, A(partment 8) is worth the admission price.”-LAist
