Sometimes it can be fun to go see theatre that’s entirely based on the writer’s imagination – they might be set in the real world, but the characters and events are all made up. This week’s Cheap Theatre, however, is a collection of shows that take their inspiration from real-life individuals and/or events. And you’ll be inspired by the cost! It’ll cost only $25 or less to see any of these shows! Check out the list below.

Sometimes shows run for what seems like ages – in fact, the Lion King musical has officially made more money than any piece of entertainment in history. Some other shows only play for one night.

So go take advantage of your opportunity to see these shows, before it’s too late!
