Penny Arcade: Pay As You Wish!

Arcade Comedy Theater believes that all families should be able to enjoy live theater in downtown Pittsburgh. Thanks to a grant from the PNC Charitable Trust, Penny Arcade is now "pay as you wish!" You can decide if, and how much, you'd like to pay per ticket to see this fun, family-friendly show. You can select how many tickets you'd like to buy, and how much you'd like to pay for them. 

Reserving tickets in advance is always a good idea, just in case our shows sell out. But if you'd prefer to come to the theater and get tickets at the box office, you can always do that as well. They'll still be "pay as you wish."
