Like a mime performing at the podium during a college commencement address, musical-theater productions are considered fine art. Indulge refined tastes with today's GrouponLive deal: for $17, you get two general-admission tickets to Sweet Charity at Quincy Music Theatre (up to a $34 value). Choose between the following dates:
• Saturday, August 13, at 7:30 p.m.

A historical community theater with a 400-person capacity, the Quincy Music Theatre offers a family-friendly peek into the magic and bewilderment of musicals in a casual setting. Two general-admission tickets grant show-tune zealots open seating in all areas of the theater, including atop the doorman’s broad shoulders. Presented by the Leaf Theatre Players, an in-house acting troupe, and directed by Naomi Rose-Mock, Sweet Charity is a musical about a girl's struggles in forming meaningful relationships and remembering to remove lint from the clothes-dryer duct.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Scopes
Magnifiers and demagnifiers of all shapes and sizes use reality-warping lenses, allowing us to view everything from microscopic bacteria to macroscopic planet-size chunks of space bacteria. What do you need to know about these expensive and delicate sight enhancers?
• Microscopes: Essentially a small, downward-pointing telescope. Microscopes use powerful lenses that transmit light into energy, then beam that energy directly into the small object to make it rapidly grow bigger. When you are finished studying the frozen turkey-size bacterium on your desk, do not forget to kill it with a hammer.
• Telescopes: Essentially a large, upward-pointing microscope. Telescopes are so powerful they allow us to see all 75 stars with such clarity that if you were to point their magnifying lenses directly at Earth's nearby sun, your entire head would explode. Telescopes can also be used to protect your neighbors from their own morals.
• Kaleidoscopes: These optic novelty tubes contain a circular pattern of mirrors that create geometric patterns from tiny, colored beads contained within. Fun fact: If you use a kaleidoscope to commit a crime, you will spend eternity trapped inside one.
