DIXON — Now is the time to check out the world-class talent from Broadway and London's West End, Ireland and Shanghai, that will take the stage as the City of Dixon and Historic Dixon Theatre commit to revitalizing the 95-year-old facility.

Ticket buyers for the recently announced series will save an additional 15 percent using the code EARLY BIRD on the ticketing website through July 21.

Cue Theatricals Inc., a Florida-based production company, announced a multi-show schedule comprised of top touring shows that will launch Friday, Oct. 6, with Tuesdays with Morrie - The Play, starring Jamie Farr, who played cross-dressing Klinger in TVs long running hit, M.A.S.H.

Tickets went on sale Monday, June 19, at www.cuetheatricals.com and the response has been overwhelmingly positive.

According to Chicago-based Group Theater Tix owner Tami Manton, "I have already held seats for two groups for Morrie and am working with two others for the Circus and Beginnings…and our postcard has yet to hit the mail."

In addition to Tuesdays with Morrie - The Play, the current line-up is:

Beginnings - The Ultimate Tribute to Chicago Friday, Oct. 20

A Night with Janis Joplin Saturday, Nov. 11

A Charlie Brown Christmas Live On Stage Wednesday, Dec. 6

All shows begin at 7:30 except The New Shanghai Circus at 2 and 7:30 p.m.

In addition to the current schedule, CUE is also entertaining other show options for the 2018-19 season which will be announced in upcoming months.

Season Memberships and other special promotions will be announced as CUE is committed to working with the area businesses and non-profit organizations to make this launch season a true "CUE-munity" activity.
