Merrimack Repertory Theatre has announced as part of the Campaign to Renovate Liberty Hall, MRT supporters will be able to name seats in the newly renovated theatre. So far, over 125 seats have already been claimed, leaving only 175 seats left to be named. Donors can take advantage of this historic opportunity for as little as $500 per year for three years ($1,500). To make a pledge in any amount or for more information, contact Jeffrey Prescott, Development Associate at 978-654-7552 or visit MerrimackRep.org

Funded by generous grant from Kresge Foundation, facility fees collected from the sale of tickets by the City of Lowell, and contributions from MRT's donors, the renovation of Liberty Hall will take place in the summer of 2012, beginning immediately after the close of Ghost-Writer in May. As part of the campaign, the seating in Liberty Hall will be completely replaced, and sections of the balcony will be reoriented so that every seat faces the stage. The new seats will have more hip and leg room, providing a much more comfortable viewing experience for the audience. The box office will also be moved from the basement to the main level. The lobby will be completely remodeled and will include a new, glass wall acknowledging all of our donors who help make these much-needed improvements possible. The renovation will be completed in advance of MRT's first production of the 2012-2013 season.

Tickets to all productions in the 2011-2012 Season are now on sale. Tickets begin at $24. Discounts are available for students, seniors and groups. Tickets may be purchased online at merrimackrep.org or by calling the Box Office at 978-654-4MRT (4678). Merrimack Repertory Theatre's Box Office is located at 50 E. Merrimack Street, Lowell, MA.
