Win Free Tickets to "A Time to Kill" by John Grisham on Broadway -- Free NYC Giveaway
We have a very special new contest going down right now on the GLA Blog. Here's the deal. On Broadway right now, there is an awesome play adapted from John Grisham's novel, A Time to Kill. It features a huge cast, including some amazing veteran actors you've seen in a bunch of movies -- such as Tom Skerritt of Alien, Top Gun and MASH. It was adapted to the stage by Tony® Award-winning playwright Rupert Holmes, and Grisham himself says the result is amazing. We're giving away tickets on this blog. Keep reading if you want to win a pair!

THE SHOW: "A Time to Kill, the popular courtroom drama, tells the emotionally charged, now-iconic story of a young, idealistic lawyer, Jake Brigance, defending a black man, Carl Lee Hailey, for taking the law into his own hands following an unspeakable crime committed against his young daughter. Their small Mississippi town is thrown into upheaval, and Jake finds himself arguing against the formidable district attorney, Rufus Buckley, and under attack from both sides of a racially divided city. This drama is a thrilling courtroom battle where the true nature of what is right and what is moral are called into question."
