Okay, SF theater isn't NY Broadway, but we're proud of our local dramatists. If you can't scrape the money together for the latest Tom Stoppard play or the hot new production of Urinetown: The Musical, many theaters -- such as the A.C.T. -- will allow you to be a volunteer usher and watch the play for free. (Click here to get more info on volunteering at the A.C.T.) A little careful planning puts you and your date there on the same night, and everyone knows the couple that ushers together...er...gets to watch the play together.
