With power returning to much of Lower Manhattan, some Off Broadway theaters and playhouses in the area are offering discounted tickets to entice audiences to return as well. Through next Sunday, potential theatergoers can use the discount code “SANDY” for $20 tickets to the following shows: “Checkers” at the Vineyard Theater, “Don't Go Gentle” at the Lucille Lortel Theater, “Fa lling” at the Minetta Lane Theater, “Fuerza Bruta” at the Daryl Roth Theater, “The Golden Land” at the Baruch Performing Arts Center, “The Other Josh Cohen” at the Soho Playhouse, “Stomp” at the Orpheum Theater and “A Summer Day” at the Cherry Lane Theater. In addition, “Giant,” “The Twenty-Seventh Man,” “Wild With Happy” and “Sorry” will all be discounted at The Public Theater. Tickets for “Through the Yellow Hour” at the Rattlestick Playwrights Theater will be $15. Tickets buyers should check with participating theaters for schedules and availability.

Many companies have been forced to adjust their performance schedules. The Vineyard resumed performances on Sunday and announced that the opening night for Douglas McGrath's “Checkers,” which stars Anthony LaPaglia as Richard M. Nixon, was now set for Thursday. The Classic Stage Company has moved the opening night of “Ivanov,” starring Ethan Hawke, to Nov. 15. The Epic T heater Ensemble has extended the runs of “Dispatches From (A)mended America” to Nov. 24 and “Hold These Truths” to Nov. 25 at the 14th Street Y Theater. The Public Theater announced that it would delay its first preview of “The Twenty-Seventh Man,” by Nathan Englander, to Thursday at the Martinson Theater. The Pit Stop Players, a group of musicians from Broadway orchestras, will play its canceled Halloween-themed concert on Monday at 8 p.m. at Christ and St. Stephen's Church near Lincoln Center.

The Joyce Theater canceled its presentation of Les Ballets Jazz de Montreal, which was scheduled to run from Oct. 30 to Nov. 4. Tickets can be exchanged, donated or refunded.
