Details are included below as well, but keep in mind, any donors will be recognized at the event, in next season’s programs for Sunset Shows, on our website, and our Facebook page.

Also, tickets are available for the event: $15 at the door or $12 in advance. Tickets include 2 beer tickets, free soda, chips, pretzels. The evening will include Karaoke by Greg Shaffer, pizza by the slice, split the pot, a cash bar, and a silent auction.

Official donation request letter:
Sunset Players, Inc., a community theater group that has been performing at the Dunham Recreation Center for over 30 years, in conjunction with Price Hill Civic Club, Price Hill Will, Dunham Advisory Board, and the Cincinnati Recreation Commission, is creating a fully realized arts center to serve the West side of Cincinnati.

In order to raise funds to renovate the historic building, The Arts Center at Dunham will be holding a “spring fling” fundraising event at the Crow’s Nest Bar on March 31st from 8 PM until midnight. Highlights of the event include karaoke, split the pot and a silent auction. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation of cash, merchandise, gift certificates or services for our silent auction.

A list of contributors will be on display at the spring fling and all donations will be recognized in the Sunset Players show programs for the 2012/2013 season.

The arts center will be housed in the historic 1937 arts building on the Dunham Recreation Center Complex in Price Hill, which was part of the first municipally owned tuberculosis sanatorium in the United States. The mission of the Arts Center at Dunham (ACAD) is to be a venue for visual, musical and performance art for all ages. Proposed activities include many arts programs for children, such as theater workshops teaching both on-stage and back-stage theater skills.

THE PRODUCERS at LSC, March 9-18

Get your tickets now as they are selling fast!!

Come see the hilarious Mel Brooks’ comedy THE PRODUCERS that won more Tony Awards than any other musical in history!

Opening night is March 9th at 7:30pm. Additional performances are: March 10, 15, 16 & 17 at 7:30 AND March 11 & 18 at 3pm.

To order tickets please call (513) 443-4LSC(4572)or visit our website at www.lovelandstagecompany.org.

ALL TICKETS ARE $15.

Loveland Stage Company is located at 111 South 2nd Street, Loveland, OH.

Based on the hit 1968 film of the same name, this Mel Brooks masterpiece chronicles the hilarious adventures of washed-up Broadway producer Max Bialystock and his mild-mannered accountant Leo Bloom, as they scheme to get rich quick by producing the most notorious flop in the history of showbiz. What they don’t know is that after all their hard work, the musical ends up being a smash hit! It’s a comic tour-de-force that spoofs the big, old-fashioned Broadway musical while paying tribute to it at the same time. The classic score contains such gems as “I Wanna Be A Producer,” “When You Got It, Flaunt It,” “Springtime for Hitler,” and “Prisoners of Love.” With a book by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan and music and lyrics by Mel Brooks, THE PRODUCERS will have audiences laughing out loud. Leave it to Mel Brooks to create an outrageous musical comedy featuring tap dancing old ladies, a kick line of German soldiers, and leggy show girls.

THE PRODUCERS is directed by Tom Cavano, produced by Pat Furterer, and choreographed by Marjory Clegg. Music direction by John Nixon.

PARENTAL DISCRETION IS STRONGLY ADVISED!
