*The Fine Print:

Tickets: When CGOA presents concerts, there are multiple performances of the same program. When our Stages Musical Theater performs, there are usually about eight performances of  the musical.

Some levels of sponsorship include just one discounted ticket for the run of a program. Higher levels of sponsorship, starting at the Friend level, receive multiple tickets during the run of a program.

 

Special Events: CGOA charges higher ticket prices for our musical theater productions and concerts with special guest artists. Sponsors who normally receive complimentary tickets for a program will be given tickets for one performance. Tickets TBD.

Special event programming for 2022-23 includes concerts with Sam Baker (March) and Stages production of Little Shop of Horrors (May). Dates and events subject to change.
