Producers of the new Broadway musical Chaplin, based on the life of screen legend Charlie Chaplin, have announced a special "buy one get one free" ticket offer for performances Oct. 31-Nov. 2 at the Barrymore Theatre.

Buy-one-get-one-free tickets at every price level are available for performances Oct. 31 at 7:30 PM, Nov. 1 at 7 PM and Nov. 2 at 8 PM at the Barrymore Theatre box office.

Chaplin features music and lyrics by Christopher Curtis and book by three-time Tony Award winner Thomas Meehan and Curtis. The musical opened on Broadway Sept. 10, following previews that began Aug. 21, at the Barrymore Theatre.

Directed and choreographed by Warren Carlyle, the musical stars Rob McClure in the title role with Jim Borstelmann (Alf Reeves), Jenn Colella (Hedda Hopper), Ethan Khusidman, Erin Mackey (Oona O’Neill), Michael McCormick (Sennett, McGranery, Emcee), Christiane Noll (Hannah Chaplin), Zachary Unger (Young Charlie, Jackie) and Wayne Alan Wilcox (Sydney Chaplin).

Here's how producers bill the musical: "From the slums of London to the heights of Hollywood, Chaplin is the showbiz Broadway musical about the silent film legend the world couldn’t stop talking about — Charlie Chaplin. The brand new 24-person musical reveals the man behind the legend, the undeniable genius that forever changed the way America went to the movies."
