Update #4 · Mar 30, 2012 · comment

Greetings once again, my excellent friends!

We have come to the end of our Kickstarter campaign, which, thanks to you has been a fantastic success. Your generous support over the past month will enable us to pay our dedicated cast and crew, and bring this most excellent show to the Chicago stage. We are very excited and cannot wait to share this experience with you!

In the coming days, we’ll be sending you information requests to help us fulfill your backer rewards. In the meantime, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to send us a message.

But today, at the end of the campaign and mere hours before Opening Night, on behalf of New Millennium Theatre Company and the cast and crew of We Are Wyld Stallyns, I’d like to thank you all once again for your generous support. Your backing of this project means so much to us, in so many ways.

To us, YOU are the Most Important People in the World!

We hope to see you soon at the theatre. Until then,

Be Excellent To Each Other!

PARTY ON, DUDES!

Like Sands Through the Hourglass So Are the Days Until Opening Night!

Update #3 · Mar 22, 2012 · comment

Greetings again, my excellent friends!

We have 8 days left until we open, and 8 days left in our Kickstarter campaign.

We’d like to again thank all of you, our generous donors, who have participated so far, and have helped us reach our initial goal of $1500.

Of course, all proceeds from this campaign will be divided among the 16 members of our cast and backstage crew, so we’d really like to raise well over that target to more adequately compensate these dedicated performers.

Ideally, we’d like to reach $2500, so for this final week we’re announcing a bonus for all our backers if we reach that amount.

In addition to the rewards you’ve already selected, when we reach our target of $2500, we will also give every backer at the $25 level and above a We Are Wyld Stallyns guitar pick and a signed promotional photo.

Please help us spread the word about the show and the added bonus to your friends and other potential supporters. Time is running out and we want to make this a fabulous, rewarding experience for you our backers, our cast and our audience.

Until next time, party on, dudes! Be excellent to each other. And don’t ever do homework without your headphones on!

Thank you all so much for helping us reach our $1500 goal so quickly! Reaching this goal means that we will be able to share all your generous donations with the cast. 

Of course, we have 15 days left, and with the proceeds being split between 16 members of the cast and crew, we’re working hard to continue this momentum (more on that later) and really hope to increase the amount we can pay these hardworking starving artists. (We'd ideally like to reach $2500, but, again, more on that later). So please spread the word and keep up your enthusiasm for this show.

For now, though, we just want to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts. We are truly grateful for your support, and we are totally stoked for March 30th so we can share this show with you!

Party on, dudes!

Oh, and here’s another album cover Rufus dropped off for us:

Thanks so much to all our backers, at all levels, who have contributed to make this a bodacious first week for our Kickstarter campaign.

Thanks to you, we're halfway to our campaign goal! 

Music and scene rehearsals are also well underway and we couldn't be more excited. 

Rufus even dropped off some excellent future Wyld Stallyns album covers that we'll be sharing with you here. We hope you like them!

Thanks again.

Party on, dudes!
