We are Samurai at Venus: Two Weeks Left to Fundraise!

Theater can be spectacular, moving, immersive, awe inspiring, and full out mind blowing. But theater needs money. (As you know.)

Venus Theater, one of the oldest women's theaters in the country, is doing We are Samurai in ways I find truly amazing, thrilling, and exciting. And then need a bit of money. The actors are amazing. (I've never laughed so hard hearing my work.) The director, Deborah Randall, is genius. This show is going to rock. But it needs YOU. 

Anything you can give, I thank you.

We are Fundraising!

The work has begun.

We’re aiming to raise $5,000 dollars by September 19th to cover the costs of space rental, sound and lighting equipment rental, materials for costumes, set, props, publicity, and to offer our artists a small honorarium. If you can support this project by donating $25 or $50 dollars, we’d be very grateful. Every contribution helps us get a little closer to bringing this play to life.  

We’re fundraising with USA Projects, an all or nothing platform, which means meaning that we either raise all of it or receive none of it! All donations are completely tax-deductible and greatly appreciated.  

Please click the link above to chip in. We thank you for your support.
