VIRGINS & SLUTS
Plan to join us in October when we unveil our inaugural presentation of VIRGINS & SLUTS, an evening of ORIGINAL work from members of The Collective. Over 90 days, through three phases, participants write, workshop and prepare their pieces for presentation. There are no restrictions about style or form, just a green light to WRITE about a given theme. All the work presented must be original, whether the writer is a virgin (never written ANYTHING before) or a slut (one of our regular contributors). You get to see the beginnings of future productions from The Collective, and your feedback is welcomed.
SUMMER 2010
"NO EMPTY SEATS" MAKE THEATRE ACCESSIBLE CAMPAIGN -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is an essential part of our mission to provide access to quality theatre for individuals and groups who cannot afford to see a professional show or are not aware that such opportunities exist. We would rather share our work with an enthusiastic and engaged audience who have not paid a dime than to have empty seats.
WHAT WE DO:
1. Tickets to our productions are offered free of charge and on a 'pay-what-you-can' basis.
2. We promote to schools and through social media, and try to reach communities for whom theater may remain a luxury instead of an integral part of the culture.
3. We actively seek donations and provide opportunities for our supporters to help us provide access for those unable to do so themselves.
WHAT YOU CAN DO:
BUY TICKETS to see our productions, or MAKE A DONATION so that someone else can. Every $18 = one seat. Our current campaign is to fill 1,000 seats this Summer through ticket sales and your donations. Help us provide access to quality theatre with your donation.
THE COLLECTIVE MEMBER PERFORMANCE CALENDAR
is now available to view. We are proud of our members and
the work they do both inside and outside The Collective.
You can see our members on stage and screen at any given
moment. Check back regularly to see where our members are
working, and be sure to check them out.
The Lesson is The Collective’s
first production... it’s exciting to think about how
the group will apply such fierce energy to other works.
