    We HAVE made our Kickstarter goal but we still need more funds! We have three more days:-) And we want to reach to at least 2000.00! 

    The fundraiser Hosted by John P Shanley last week was AMAZING- thanks to those that attended! Unforgettable night with unforgettable folks and unforgettable music! Marsalis and Nash rocked it with Jackson and Sikivie!

    Also, please go to our website and check us out: www.nylonfusion.org and to buy tickets to our show if you haven't already: https://www.ovationtix.com/trs/cal/931/1301702400000/prm/

    Our NY Paper Dragon on the 20th and our LONDON Wisdom of Obscurity opens on the 17th- So don't be shy and get them before it's too late. We'd love to see you there. The space is small and the experience large!

    Cheers,

    The Next Few Days

    We are really looking forward to March 24th and in raising funds for our dream shows in April. It's hard with all the economic crisis but we are very optimistic. It is such a pleasure to have Shanley host our event with Ted and Wynton, an icon, perform! We are EXTREMELY grateful to have this opportunity and hope you will join us. If you are unable, we hope you can contribute any amount you can toward our goal! We need help, your help. 

    Thanks so much, Ivette and Elliot

    Only a miracle (an angel)...

    ...can help us reach our goal of 7,000- we have 41 hours left to know. (Mind you, I believe in miracles) I am grateful that you have given us your attention. If in 41 hours we do not reach our goal this site will be closed. We do hope that you will still consider donating to Nylon Fusion Collective and that this is not in any way shape or form a failure. The future of Nylon Fusion Collective: we are celebrating Fuente Ovejuna by Lope de Vega from June 17th through July 3rd at the flamboyan Clemente Soto Velez www.nylonfusion.org for more info.
    Tickets on sale at http://www.smarttix.com/show.aspx EID=&showCode=FUE2&GUID=307953ad-9e81-4632-8ee3-b9eb49878aea

    Nylon Fusion Collective Benefit Outcome: We Need Your LOVE..!

    On Monday April 19th we had our Soiree benefit event hosted by Paul Haggis (Crash, Million Dollar Baby). We had the honor of having Wynton Marsalis and Ted Nash perform. John P Shanley and Edward Menicheschi, VP of Vanity Fair were among the guests that evening. It was quite a surreal experience! Just imagine being in the company of friends and some of the most respected people in America coming together to give hope to a new, emerging theatre company. That evening we raised almost half of the funds needed to make our season successful (which makes us extremely proud). But still have a long way to go...

    By contributing a few dollars to our Kickstarter page, you can help us mount this historical play: Fuente Ovejuna by Lope de Vega. This is the US premiere of Adrian Mitchell’s translation, which preserves the integrity of Lope’s original work but presents a contemporary sensibility.
    More info: www.nylonfusion.org

    We really really really do need your Love!

    Thanks!!!
    Ivette and Elliot at Nylon.
