The Washington Savoyards open their new show Babes in Toyland, this weekend and they are offering some special discounts.
All tickets to performances Friday November 30th through Sunday December 2nd are $25. If you buy 4 tickets they are $20 each.
The show runs through December 9 and tickets are normally $35-$45.
Tickets to Babes can be purchased on the Atlas Performing Arts Center website or through the box office, 202.399.7993.
During the run of Babes in Toyland, The Savoyards will be collecting toys on behalf of Toys for Tots and the local organization Bright Beginnings.
The Atlas Performing Arts Center is located at 1333 H Street.
Watch the NBC News4 story on the production. A couple of points:
1. This isn't really community theater because the Savoyards are a professional company.
2. You'll notice the station used a old construction shot of the front of the Atlas. The panning shot immediately precedes Atlas Executive Director talking about all the new development on H Street. Sort of an odd juxtaposition.

Does anyone know the rules for what kind of toys can be donated? The link doesn't seem to explain it. Only new? Gently used? Stuffed toys ok?
Q : What kinds of toys are not allowed?
A : Toys with military theme. Toys related to weapons/law enforcement type toys. Toys with candy. Used toys. No chemicals (i.e. experimental labs, acid, crystal projects, etc.). The Toys For tots program do not allow these toys. The Toys For Tots of the Marine Corps reserve will not distribute toys fitting this description that are donated to the program to children. Instead, these toys will be donated to another charity organization.
Q : What kind of toys can I donate?
A : New, unwrapped toys preferably around the $10 or above price range. It is unsafe to distribute dangerous or dirty toys that could cause injury or illness to a child.
And also no toys that have been recalled.
