Volunteering -
We need people to help build sets, to work backstage (we'll teach you
how), or even to help in the office, (answer the
phone, mailing lists and such). Look for our Volunteer party
and training session...coming this summer.
Donating - We can always
use building materials (for building sets & making repairs),
paints (sorry, NO oil base), brushes, tools, and even props and
costumes. Cash is
also helpful, which would be a good tax deduction, since we're a
non-profit outfit. And if you own a business, think about a corporate
sponsorship.
Auditioning - Can you act?
Come to the auditions. You would be amazed by the satisfaction derived
from getting on that stage and making all those people forget the
problems of daily life. You'll forget your own while you're at it.
Problems, that is, not lines. Auditioning is fun, even if you don't get
cast in the role you wanted. And if you do get that role... hey, next
stop Broadway or Hollywood or maybe even a car dealership commercial.
Buying tickets - Now there's a
real way to help! You get entertained and you help the theater's budget
at the same time! Especially if you buy season's tickets -- say, as a
gift for someone you love at anniversary time (hint, hint). How much
more romantic can you get? Take her out to dinner at one of our great
local restaurants and then see a live show -- think about it. If you
own or manage a business, consider that theater tickets make great
rewards for outstanding employees -- they also make good incentives or
prizes for such things as not having an accident for x
days. Some larger businesses have been known to buy an entire extra
performance for the employees, just to show appreciation for a job well
done, or for a holiday party! A small business could buy a table or
two. You get the picture. If you don't own a business, think about
buying season tickets for you and your spouse, plus another couple of
season tickets with which to take different friends to the theater
throughout the year -- visiting relatives, that sort of thing. Show
them you have class and artistic sensitivity. Show them you know
quality entertainment when you see it.
Talking - Tell your
friends to come see a show that you liked. Backdoor will benefit from
the ticket sales, your friends will benefit from the enjoyment and
relaxation of a great evening, and you'll benefit from their undying
gratitude for widening their horizons. So next time Lester or Marvin
start talking politics (you know the kind of politics - they're always
supporting some corrupt idiot or another, instead of the qualified
statesman you and I support), change the subject and tell 'em to go see
a show at Backdoor. Keep your blood pressure under control, you see!
