(Man) 
Oh, you must be new to the school this year. 
(Woman) 
I am. I just transferred here this year … but how did you know that? 
(Man) 
Because anyone who’s been here for a while knows what the Spring 
Show is. It’s a really big event. 
(Woman) 
I’m guessing that from what you’re saying. But is it really necessary to 
get tickets now? I don’t even know if I can go. 
(Man) 
Absolutely, if you want to get tickets at all. They went on sale last 
Monday, and any remaining tickets will be sold to the public next 
Monday. After tickets are available to the public, they sell out almost 
immediately. 
(Woman) 
I don’t know exactly what the Spring Show is, but I guess I should get 
tickets right away and find out what it’s all about. 
(Man) 
Trust me, you won’t regret it.
