Discussion:  Season Tickets Steve made the following proposal regarding ticket prices for next season:  There be no increase in prices; that the age for student tickets be raised from 14 to 18; that the two Children's Theatre Series productions be sold as a two for the price of one package at all price levels; that the productions in the Events Series be offered without charge; that we initiate a student rush policy, and that the price of season tickets be set at $28.00 for adults and $20.00 for students, including membership.  After discussing these issues it was decided to table making a decision on ticket prices until the next meeting, except for setting the cost of season tickets as proposed.

Discussion: Annual Meeting  The board tentatively set the date for the annual meeting for the afternoon of June 10 at the Palace Theatre, pending the availability of the theatre.
