In 1833, a schoolmaster gives his Irish-speaking students a classical education, versing them in Ancient Greek and Latin—but not in English. Meanwhile, the British Army arrives to create a new map of Ireland that will “standardize” the Gaelic place-names to English. When the schoolmaster’s son returns home from Dublin to serve as the Army’s translator, the fate of the Irish locals and their native tongue is cast into uncertainty. The play is a captivating exploration of the power of language to kindle romance, ignite tensions, and inflame the human heart’s yearning to understand.
Translations is appropriate for ages 13 & up. Running Time: 120 minutes with one intermission.

PICK YOUR PRICE TICKETSThis season we're trying a new ticket model, "Pick Your Price" tickets, which is geared towards making our plays more accessible to all. When purchasing a ticket, you'll be given three different price options. Please choose the ticket price that makes the most sense for you – based on what you can afford and how you'd like to show your support. ENCORE PRICE - $64 When you buy this ticket, you help underwrite our shows by paying closer to the actual price it costs per seat to produce our plays. You also help increase access for other community members so they can attend our shows, too. BRAVO PRICE - $44 This represents our standard price for a ticket and this is what we recommend you buy if you've been to our shows before. APPLAUSE PRICE - $34 This is our entry level price for patrons who want to try attending a show for the first time. It's also for those who feel that the other prices are outside their budget this year. We've also eliminated transaction fees, so you can purchase online, over the phone, or in person without an extra charge. |
Over the years, we've noticed our pricing hasn't worked for everyone. Some patrons can comfortably afford our tickets while others have found our pricing a challenge. So, we've decided to take action! We're trying a new ticket model, called "Pick Your Price" which aims to increase access so more folks can come to our shows and experience live theatre. Thanks for giving this new idea a try!
WHICH TICKET SHOULD I BUY?
We encourage you to purchase the "Bravo Price” ticket at $44, which is what we typically charge for our shows. If you are able, we hope you'll consider purchasing an “Encore Price” ticket at $64. You'll be creating opportunities for more patrons to attend, while supporting the artists and staff who make Vermont Stage possible. If neither of these options work for you, no problem! We've created an "Applause Price” ticket at $34. We're so grateful to have you attend a Vermont Stage show!
WHY SHOULD I BUY AN ENCORE PRICE TICKET?
It costs a lot more to produce our plays than what we charge at the box office. In fact, if we were to charge our actual costs to attend, we'd need to charge each audience member $84 per seat! When you're an "Encore Price" Ticket Buyer, you're helping us recoup some of our costs. You're also supporting the attendance of patrons who may not be able to afford standard prices, providing an opportunity for more people to experience live theatre! Thanks for supporting our community, and our theatre, in this way!
