Posted project update #1Twelfth Night...My Next Project...Your Help Needed...Please Consider Again!
Post CommentDear Friends,
Exciting news! I’ve started a new venture with a number of people involved…it’s the capturing of Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare on video to be presented online in webisode form! We are already in rehearsals with an amazing cast and I need your help to make it happen as amazingly as it could happen. I am contacting you because you were generous enough to offer your pledge on my last project which didn’t happen and thankfully you were not charged but now I have this – which is something even better! All donations at this time will be gathered (it is not a pledge all or nothing fundraiser like last time) and put into the production! We are in need of funding for various production needs as listed on our website. Please check it out at www.12thnight.info which is under construction (I will be adding more incentives and updates so if you donate you will get that updated incentive!). We are receiving donations at www.paypal.com recipient name “rockstarsissy@gmail.com” (that’s me, accepting donations on behalf of myself or any cast member). I decided to use paypal and accept donations directly to avoid the approximately 10% service fees that kickstarter and the credit card companies take combined; as every penny counts for our production! I tried to design our www.12thnight.info webpage much like kickstarter of indiegogo however there are small differences and I will update backers manually by each day end!
We are shooting for June & July to begin filming and are setting a deadline for donating by the end of May. We began rehearsing in April and will continue rehearsing til the end of May.
I approached the instrument makers of Strumstick with regards to sponsoring our production with one of their instruments…and they agreed!!!! They were totally into the idea of our production! They sent me a D Grand Strumstick see strumstick.com!!!! The character of Feste the clown will sing the songs Shakespeare wrote and accompany himself on the strumstick to melodies I have written for Shakespeare’s lyrics! I’d like to continue to share all these amazing pieces of news with you! Your donations are greatly appreciated. No donation is too large or too small. All this information is also on our website www.12thnight.info please consider making this project happen as best it can with your donation!
Sincerely,
Catherine Taormina-Addeo -
