The Off Broadway Alliance has announced the dates for the 2015 20at20 program, which entitles audience members to purchase $20 tickets to 41 off-Broadway shows.

In a statement, Off Broadway Alliance Peter Breger said, "There are so many amazing things to see Off Broadway right now: Tonya Pinkins and Dianne Wiest are starring in Cynthia Nixon’s directorial debut, Rasheeda Speaking, a contemporary dark comedy/thriller at the New Group. Lillias White is thrilling her fans in Texas in Paris at the York, and Christine Bianco, whose hilarious takes on pop divas have made her a YouTube sensation, is live on stage in Application Pending, an outrageous comedy about the battle for kindergarten admissions at the Westside Theatre. That’s just a sample of the wonderful shows that are available for $20 per ticket for the next 20 days."

The list of shows also includes long-running favorites like Avenue Q and The Fantasticks. In order to purchase tickets, just show up at the box office 20 minutes to curtain. With 20at20, you can see six or seven shows for about the average price of one Broadway ticket. The promotion runs from January 20-February 8.
