“It stands as one of the first times an American operatic production has used a company logo as a prop and been remunerated for it (in-kind services rather than money). Bridgewater-based Bruster’s agreed to send e-mails with a special $20 ticket promotion… and provide free ice cream to patrons at Sunday’s matinee… Programs also carried coupons for Bruster’s ice cream.”
