Michael Maloney

New York, NY

Actor and writer - live performance, theater, film. I am 27, from New York and have been working in theater and film for 11 years. I love DIY artists and that independent spirit of making your dreams a reality no matter what. I spent from 2007 - 2009 as a cast member in the hit off-Broadway show - The Awesome 80's Prom.

    Glad This Is Not A Math Project

    We must have been confused writing the last update. We need 150 donations of $10. Not 160.....but those keys are close together, so you understand how that could happen.

    Now, onto the stuff! Please visit the site, and if you think this a project you can get behind, please do, we've got plenty of cool rewards to the right >>>>>
    WE CAN DO THIS!

    Thanks,

    - CRASH

    Our Goal

    The goal of this campaign to help raise funds is $1,500 - in order for us to reach this goal, we need to make the total within the next 40 days (which roughly equals 37.5$ per day).

    We can reach this goal easily, by four donations of $10 a day coming from 160 people - people like you, people who care about the arts and support theatre! There is nothing quite like live performance, and we are trying to bring it to you in a way that is fresh, creative, inspired, and will leave you with a strong desire to get back in a seat in our audience the next time you get the chance!

    Please if you cannot donate the $10, spread the word about our efforts here, that will help ensure we reach the goal!

    Thanks!

    The Start

    Well, we have been at work on this for some time, and are currently raising funds to cover our additional costs on the first production. I hope some kickstarter people who love and support live theatre will help us out!

    The Magic Hour - PLEASE READ AND SHARE!

    Hello to you all! Hope the holiday was fantastic!

    THIS UPDATE IS IMPORTANT! That is why it has sentences in all capitals and exclamation points! BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY IN ALL REALITY IS INDEED VERY IMPORTANT...

    What do I really need to do as far as fund raising goes for the next 12 days? I need to raise about $2,000 more and then will have the extreme generosity of a few individuals covering the rest, BUT THIS WILL ONLY HAPPEN...ONLY...IF WE GET THERE!

    I know this can be achieved and I am thankful and faithful that you will over the next 12 days do your best to help spread the word and make this happen. This will be a 12 day period where every hour will become what I've dubbed "The Magic Hour". This will be a time where one donation every hour is my goal - THE SIZE OF THE DONATION IS NOT IMPORTANT, BUT A CONSISTENT STREAM OF DONATIONS COMING IN WILL GET THIS PROJECT FUNDED!

    Please believe it can be done and have the knowledge that it cannot be done without YOU.
    I know this and I continue to send out great thanks and all the positive energy I can muster!!!

    Let's spread the word and get people donating, and if you can take the time to show them or explain how easy it is and your reasoning for doing it, that would be nothing short of amazing!

    I know we can get there together! I know it!

    THANK YOU ALL!

    - Michael

    Hey Tony, you might have a pop-up blocker on, or i would try right clicking and opening the link in a new window! Thanks for wanting to help out! It is greatly appreciated! Darren - we are starting the shoot on January 20th and shooting for a week. People who are backing the project will get all behind the scenes, distribution details, as well as online access to the films when they are completed. Actually, there is not much for music in the films, my friends from the band Phantogram are going to score what I need. Thanks for the question and for backing the project!
