Hey there,

In case you didn't know some of those theater folks you know and love
(including me!)are putting on an amazing new show in this year's New York
International Fringe festival, and we need your help! All you have to do
is click a button (and maybe skip that iced latte this week). So forget
Starbucks, forget Subway, and give *Self-Portrait as Schiele* your $5
instead!

Of course we would love for you all to come see this world premier inspired
by the life and work of the Austrian Expressionist artist, Egon Schiele.
But in order for us to put up a show for you to see we are working hard to
raise some money. But hear us out! We don't want your life savings, we
don't want this week's paycheck, we don't even want the price of a movie.
For much less you can help us put clothes on the actors (ok, we admit they
will frequently take them off again, but that's beside the point). If
everyone we know gives $5, we will have the best-dressed (and undressed)
actors ever! So forgo the footlong and give a little!

Just go to our website and you can click to use pay pal to give a little -
super fast and easy! http://www.selfportraitplay.com/Support_Us.html

If you're willing to give more we can make your donation tax-deductible with
our fiscal sponsor, Fractured Atlas. https://www.fracturedatlas
.org/site/contribute/donate/1727. Check out our website for more info abut
the play, or if you would like a sponsorship packet with info on the show
and its creators I will happily send it your way!

And lastly, SAVE THE DATE for our fundraiser party - Thursday, July 24th!!
Stay tuned...

Sincerely,
Eve and
The TheaterMEME team

ps - if you're our friend on facebook (which you should be!) you may have
already seen this there, sorry for the redundancy, but we really need your
help, and hey, it's only $5, right?
