Who’s the next contestant on The Price is Right? It is you, I, all of us.
Daytime gameshow/cultural touchstone The Price is Right is bringing its live show to the Dartmouth Sportsplex on March 27. The “hit interactive stage show” recreates the experience of CBS’ 43-year-old price-guessing cavalcade. Contestants will get to play classic games from the show, like Plinko or Cliffhangers, and even compete in some Showcase Showdowns.
“Prizes may include appliances, vacations and possibly a new car!”
Drew Carey not included.
Tickets go on sale January 23 at 9am through Ticketpro, but note that purchasing a ticket will not increase your chances of being selected to play. For that you’ll need to visit a “registration area” near the box office three hours prior to the show. Contestants will then be selected by random draw.
The potential value of prizes per show is $25,000 (and that’s US money, baby). So now might be a good time to memorize some prices and brush up on your strategy.
Playing to audiences for nearly nine years, The Price Is Right Live! has apparently given away more than $10 million dollars in cash and prizes and sold more than 1.2 million tickets.
