Let 'em rework the model. No game show can match the riveting design perfection of The Price is Right. It's an unapologetic celebration of consumerism, populated with games of chance -- I still excited when the yodeling starts on Cliffhanger.
I'm not alone on this. We all harbor secret Plinko passions and Showcase Showdown lusts. On Wednesday, May 15, an interactive touring edition of the game arrives at the Majestic theater. In honor of the show's 40 year anniversary, Price is Right Live!'s press agents promise excess, Big Wheel style. You can sign up for a shot at appliances, vacations and yes, even a ne--e--ew car! Here's the contestant registration link.
Here's what Price's people have to say:
The Price Is Right Live! is the hit interactive stage show that gives contestants pulled right from the audience the chance to "Come On Down" to win appliances, vacations and even new cars by playing classic games from television's longest running and most popular game show. From Plinko to Cliffhangers to the Big Wheel, and even the fabulous Showcase, all the favorite games are played just like the TV show.
Playing to near sold out audiences for nearly nine years, The Price Is Right Live! has given away more than 10 million dollars in cash and prizes and sold more than 1.2 million tickets.
The show is designed to allow consumers to enjoy the rush of emotions experienced while watching the show on television, but while actually in the audience watching it live.
Registration to become a contestant opens 3 hours before the show time in each city. All consumers are eligible to register to be a contestant on The Price Is Right Live tour, whether or not they have purchased a ticket to view the show. During the open contestant registration, consumers enter their names into a random drawing. 60 names are randomly selected as potential contestants. Names from this selection of 60 are then randomly called as necessary as needed for gameplay. Having your name selected as one of the 60 does not guarantee participation.
Tickets are available through Ticketmaster.
