Get Involved | Wish List

Dear Supporter,

The following is a list of items our organization desperately needs. If you are our Fairy Godmother/Father and have access to grant us these wishes we would be ever so grateful.

COPIER

The hunk of junk in our office keeps jamming - and true someone purchased it on Ebay because we needed a copier - but this thing has been sitting in our office for over one year without the capability of even making more than 10 copies - in the copier's lifetime. To make a long story short, we need to be able to have the ability to communicate on actual hard copies.

FILM PRODUCTION CREW

The quality of our filming and taping of the shows is paramount to the organization being able to show clips and tapes of our work in the best manner. Videotaping/filming production values have been low to say the least. Shots are too far away, an unsteady camera that is giggling, sound quality is poor and echo-y instead of crisp and clear made for the camera. We feel as if we have to place a disclaimer when we submit clips to be reviewed for funding panels.

If you know of a "real" film production crew that has the ability at the very least to provide pro-bono to tape the entire production (or even just a few key scenes) we would appreciate it very much.

If you don't know how to be of assistance, then please feel free to doing it the "new-fashioned" way by clicking on the button below and making a contribution small or large.

Please do not hesitate to give today. Your much-needed and greatly appreciated tax-deductible contribution will be recognized in our season program as well as on our website.

We hope you will join us this season and thank you for your continued support of our mission of “Envisioning the Classics with Color”.
