Fwd: VM 2016 Interest Meeting ~~~ Oct 1!

[Elina Bravve]

Hello former V Day Cast Members!

Neda and a few of the 2014 cast members have gotten a ball rolling to see if we could organize a DC community performance for 2016. We are considering a pared down version of the show from prior years, depending on the capacity of folks to help organize.

But we need a director or two to take on leading the charge. Is anyone interested in this role? Or would like to help in other ways? Please let Neda and/or myself know.

Hi lovelies!

Here are some highlights from tonight. Big thanks to those who came out and looking forward to this event building more and more momentum! :)

More info to come on the items below. But the main question right now: is anyone interested in directing? We need one or two lovely persons to get this effort rolling.

Highlights:

o   Leadership team – need a director (or two) asap, as well as other leadership roles (fundraising chair, promo chair, finance chair, beneficiary contact, venue contact, volunteer coordinator, stage manager); those interested in a leadership role, please let Neda know which role by Tuesday, October 6.

o   Beneficiary selection – we will be gathering nominations and voting on the beneficiary this month (we need a beneficiary to be able to register on the VDay website)

o   Auditions – aiming to hold them in early November, dates will depends on the directors' availability

o   Show dates – aiming for mid-March (either weekend of March 12 or 19), will be before spring break and give us enough time to practice/rehearse/fund raise

o   Show venue – exploration in motion, aiming to identify the venue this month and lock down the dates

Let me know if you have any questions or want to take a leadership role! And keep spreading the word about the show/auditions/committees/etc.

Cheers,

Neda
