Electoral campaign in Theatres

Here is a new way of campaigning in Ploieşti. The political parties have competed in reserving tickets to all the plays from the Ploieşti Theatre. PD-L Prahova is the first party to sign a contract with the theatre management. Lucian Sabados, the director of the "Toma Caragiu” Theatre, has announced that the democrat-liberals bought two sets of tickets for this week and other shows are under negotiation. Sabados stated that PD-L is not the only party that has chosen to send its voters to the theatre. "There is an intention to purchase the entire set of tickets for several plays, by the end of November. Comedies and revues are preferred”, said Sabados.
Roberta Anastase, the president of PD-L Prahova, has declared that this represents a new type of political marketing in Romania. "People are tired of door-to-door campaigns. We have chosen to get to know ourselves and to communicate in a different way, and also to enjoy seeing a play”, the democrat-liberals' chief explained, adding the fact that the invitations bought by PD-L have been distributed among party sympathizers and members. A complete set of 250 tickets for all the plays staged at "Toma Caragiu” Theatre costs between 1.500 and 2.000 lei. Other parties that have decided to invite their sympathizers to plays are PSD and PNL.
