University Players is offering DailyNews readers a chance to win two tickets to see the political crowd-pleaser Blue Stockings. The play will run February 3 to 12 in the Essex Hall Theatre.

It’s a moving, comical and eye-opening tale of four brave young women as they face economic difficulty, the distractions of love, cruelty of the class divide, strong opposition and painful choices in their desire for education in Victorian England.
