Here's how it works. Each organized house (whether Greek or independ ent) and many of the campus organizations have selected an honorary producer who is in charge of season ticket sales for the University The atre. The ticket sellers are al lowed to keep the extra dol lar (tickets are -normally five dollars), pass it along to the students as a saving for their piggy banks or give it to the organized house to build up the coffers. Incentive Or, the house could vote to let the honorary producer keep the extra buck for his efforts. "This new system is just an added incentive to bulge ticket sales," Dallas Williams, director of the University Theatre noted. And it seems to be working well, according to one bouse "producer" who has already made ten sales. The producers will be given a banquet by the theatre after the ticket campaign is over. In addition, the sellers will be given a gala formal opening night at the first Howell Theatre production, Merchant of Venice, starting Oct. 22. Honorary Title The honorary theatre organ ization, Masquers, is in charge of the producer cam paign. The two sellers (one a male, the other from the distaff side) who do the best overall job will be named Honorary Producers for the season and will receive season passes to the plays and opera. In addi tion, their pictures as well as their affiliation, will be print ed in the theatre programs for each show. The campaign will be "on" through this week.
