Mouse King Sale

It's 20- to 30-percent off, and it's not a digital photo frame or an alarm clock that projects the time onto your wall. Pennsylvania Ballet is putting The Nutcracker on sale - just today, just on its website. The production is new as of last year, and pretty wonderful in some ways.
I tried to buy my sale tickets at 7:31 a.m. and got this:

We're Sorry!
Your order was not completed due to a technical problem.
Please try again later, or call our box office at 215-893-1999 for assistance.

Of course, it's a web-only sale, so calling doesn't work. Here's wishing you better luck!

It's working now. Perhaps the server was overloaded with sales!
