September is Very Busy at Garland Civic Theatre!‏

Tickets are available now for
Agatha Christie’s Spider’s Web!

Get your tickets for this exciting thriller online or by calling the Garland Arts Box Office at 972-205-2790.

Clarissa, the second wife of Henry Hailsham-Brown, is adept at spinning tales of adventure for their bored diplomatic circle. When a murder takes place in her drawing room she finds live drama much harder to cope with, especially as she suspects the murderer might be her young stepdaughter. Worse still, the victim is the man who broke up Henry’s first marriage! Clarissa’s fast-talking places her in some hair-raising situations, as she comes to learn that the facts are much more terrifying than fiction…  A mystery brilliantly woven with thrills and comedy bursting from every dark corner!

The production will run Friday through Sunday, Sept 4 – 26 with a Thursday preview performance at a very special price of $12 on Sept 3 at the Granville Arts Center, 300 North 5th Street in downtown Garland. The opening night reception following the performance on Sept 4th will be catered by Dos Banderas.  Call the Arts Center Box Office at 972-205-2790 for tickets or order them online at www.garlandartsboxoffice.com. Single tickets are now available. All tickets are $22 which includes service fee. There are discounts available for KERA members and groups of 10 or more. Please note that the Thursday performance is at 7:30 p.m., Friday and Saturday evenings are at 8 p.m. and matinees (Sundays, Sept 6 and 13) are at 2:30 p.m.

Thursday, September 17th will be North Texas Giving Day. North Texas Giving Day is an online giving event that provides nonprofits the opportunity to gain exposure to and start relationships with new donors, and for people in North Texas to come together to raise as much money as possible for local nonprofits. North Texas’ incredible generosity has broken the national record 3 years in a row! After last year’s national record-crushing 75,000 donations totaling $26.3 million, North Texas Giving Day is back with the hopes that North Texas will raise the giving day bar once again to benefit more North Texas nonprofits. On September 17, 2015, donations of $25 or more can be made 6 a.m. to midnight to more than 2,100 certified nonprofits listed on www.NorthTexasGivingDay.org. Those donations will be amplified by more than $2 million dollars in bonus funds and prizes.

Visit www.northtexasgivingday.org/#npo/garland-civic-theatre anytime between 6 a.m. and midnight on September 17, 2015, and click Donate Now. Your donation will go a long way in helping us provide the best theatrical experiences for the citizens of Garland and surrounding communities. Whether from your bed, at your desk, or sitting on your couch…. Remember to get up and give on September 17th!
