Calling all Valley actors! Help raise the curtain on the Valley Players.
On Sunday, April 28, 12pm-3pm, the Valley Players will hold its first Sceneathon—an evening of community, theater, and gourmet dining in downtown Amherst. The Sceneathon is the inaugural fundraising event for the Valley Players and an opportunity to showcase some of the tremendous acting talent here in the Valley.
Any and all actors are welcome to sign-up to be a part of the show and to stage a scene or speech from a play of their choice. Participating performers will gather donations from people willing to sponsor their appearance in the show. Sponsorship donations can be in any amount and are tax-deductible. The performer with the highest donation total by the day of the show will get 4 complimentary tickets to a future Valley Players production of their choice.
To sign up and receive a pledge form, email info@valleyplayers.org with:
1.) the names of the people who will be performing and everyone’s contact info;
2.) the play, act and scene from which the scene/speech comes;
3.) the approximate run-time of the scene/speech (no more than 10 minutes).
100% of donations raised will go to support the programming and mission of the Valley Players, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to enriching the quality of life in the Connecticut River Valley region of Massachusetts by producing high-quality community theater and related arts, education, and cultural programming.
