Vertigo Mystery Theatre
http://www.vertigotheatre.com/
115 9 Ave. SE, Calgary, Alberta

you get two tickets to a performance of Twelve Angry Men, running Sept. 11 through Oct. 10 at the Vertigo Mystery Theatre in the Calgary Tower downtown. Choose between the following two options:

•$38 for two tickets to a Tuesday–Thursday 7:30 p.m. performance (a $76 value)
•$48 for two tickets to a Friday–Saturday 7:30 p.m. showing or a 2 p.m. Saturday matinee (up to a $96 value)

Twelve Angry Men hits the playhouse stage this fall to depict the trial of an underprivileged youth accused of murdering his father. A jury of 12 decides the fate of this young boy, who, if convicted will be sentenced to the electric chair. With the consequences of a hung jury threatening a mistrial, the deliberation is fuelled by one juror who questions the hasty conclusions of his peers. A stunning examination of the personal biases that enter into the deliberation room, including one juror’s own troubled relationship with his son, Twelve Angry Men leaves audiences chewing their nails in anticipation as the fate of a young boy and the efficacy of the justice system stand in the balance.

The Vertigo Mystery Theatre’s 2010/2011 season holds a bevy of head-scratchers, nail-biters, and cat-huggers, all kick-started with Reginald Rose’s famed courtroom drama. Replace your stack of bedside mystery novels with an evening out for two, and don your most alluring cape and alter ego to keep the talented acting going even after the show. Call ahead for availability.

A hearty chuckle has been known to ward off depression, loitering lycans, and roving bands of beatniks. Today’s Groupon reaps the benefits of a boisterous good time: you get admission to a show at The Laugh Shop, the stand-up comedy venue at The Blackfoot Inn.

Choose one of the following options:

•$7 for a Friday or Saturday night show (a $15 value)
•$5 for a Thursday night show (a $10 value)

The Laugh Shop features a fun and ever-changing collection of touring headliners that tumble in and out of town each week. Top-notch, nationally touring funnypersons take to the stage, regaling diverse audiences with side-splitting tales of merriment, matrimony, and mystical visions in the desert. Upcoming acts include master impersonator Kevin McGrath; Andrew Grose, whose credits include specials on The Comedy Network and CTV; and Tim Nutt, whose long locks and beard imbue everything he says with hilarity and a faint almond aftertaste.

The Laugh Shop offers a café menu and a full bar of beverages and booze, so you can satisfy an ornery and growling stomach pre-show to avoid angering the fickle stand-up pantheon.

Shows are for patrons 18 and older with a valid ID. This deal is only valid for regularly priced shows.

Celebrate Shakespearean sporting with today’s Groupon: for $25, you get either two hours of indoor play or four hours of outdoor play, as well as gear rental, mask rental, coveralls rental, and 500 paintballs, at Rampage Paintball (Up to a $54 value).

This deal is not valid on Saturdays.

Weave in and out of a crossfire of colour at one of Rampage Paintball’s three paintball fields. Its 28,000+-square-foot indoor field, Rampage City, puts a roof over the ricocheting back-and-forth of pigment pellets, while its outdoor fields—the more than 80,000 square feet of Urban Combat and the 50 acres of Rampage Outdoor—fill the songbird-soundtracked wilderness with the zip of paintballs cutting through the air like steak knives through a birthday card. Seek cover behind bunkers and obstacles as you target opponents lurking around each corner. The paintball gun included with this deal is a basic Model 98 marker. Guests can purchase additional paintballs (prices vary by location) should the initial supply run out in a Pollock-esque blaze of rainbow-evoking glory.

About The Deal
As much as hugs, hardy handshakes, and terms of endearment are a great way to show someone you care, nothing says “way to go!” like shooting one of your friends, family members, or if you’re lucky, your boss, with a CO2 powered paintball gun, does it? No, we didn’t think so. That being said, Dealfinders, check out today’s adrenaline-pumping deal. $30 for 2 Person Pass for 2 Hours of Paintball Including Guns, 300 Paintballs Each, Masks, and Coveralls at Rampage City Paintball ($72 value)

Located at 4839 47th St. SE in Calgary, they are considered one of the best in urban paintballing: the perfect activity if you are looking for a fun war-zone experience! With over 28,000 square feet dedicated to paintball, this is one of the premiere fields in North America, so you don’t want to miss out on that kind of fun, do you? Do you? Of course you don’t!

Tuesday Deals – Tuesday Discounts around Calgary

It’s TUESDAY! The one day out of the week that has the best and cheapest deals! A lot of businesses seem to offer special deals on Tuesdays. Here’s a couple that I know about. Please post a comment or email me any deals that you know about. I’m cheap so I try to take advantage of these deals as often as I can.

KFC – Twoonie Tuesday

It used to actually cost a twoonie a couple years ago for 2 pieces of KFC’s finger licking chicken and individual fries. The deal seems to get more expensive every year (inflation?). I believe it costs around $2.79 now, but it’s still a very good deal. I believe you can add an extra piece of chicken or add a drink for an extra dollar. This deal works at all Calgary locations and you don’t need a coupon or anything.

Empire Theatre – Real Deal Tuesday

Big savings at the movies every Tuesday at Empire Theatre. You can buy a regular admission ticket for only $6.99 (regular $12.75). If you need to munch on something, their Combo #1 is also on sale for only $5.99 (regular around ~$10). Their most popular combo consists of a small popcorn, regular soft drink and a regular Nestlé treat! I believe you can up-size the popcorn and pop for an extra dollar. This deal works at both Calgary locations (Empire Studio 10 Macleod Trail and Empire Studio 16 Country Hills) and you don’t need any special coupons or anything.

You can read more about this deal by reading our previous post about this deal Empire – Real Deal Tuesday or by visiting their website here.

Cineplex Theatre – Telus Tuesday 1/2 Price Movie Combo

Cineplex Theatre got Telus to sponsor their cheap Tuesday deal. That’s why they call it Telus Tuesdays. You don’t need to be a Telus customer or need any coupons or anything to take advantage of this deal. The deals work at all Cineplex Entrainment Theaters. Basically, you pay $11.83 each for an admission ticket, regular drink, and regular popcorn. This is about 50% off of what it would normally cost if you bought everything at regular price.

For more information about this deal, check out Cineplex’s Telus Tuesday website.

Cheap Chicken Wings deals at Calgary Restaurants and Pubs

Hotwings is a cool site that breaks down the price per chicken of a bunch of participating local restaurants and pubs. There’s also a ranking system and lots of customer reviews that will tell you if the wings are good or not. There’s a bunch of places that sells wings for as little as $0.10 or $0.15 each! That’s cheap!

Check out their website for more information and to view the large list of restaurants and pubs.
