Using Youtube!

Something really fun about getting the word out about the show is that there are no limits on how to get the word out!

You can even use the internet!

This first link is our promo video! It's a short, fun video that gives a quick synopsis of the show!
It's super entertaining, but also gets all the points across, and encourages people to come to the show!

In this next link is a local rapper who is friends with our friend in publicity, Christine! She was able to ask him to do this promo video in which he made a video on his channel about coming to see the show to encourage some of his fans to come and watch!

Updating the Set

I realized that you haven't really gotten a good look at the set since it was like the picture below, just a bunch of eight foot platforms with nothing else on them!

Since then we have been able to add walls to the platforms! 

And added some staircases too!

Set dressing is also really important for the stage in an early time period because the actor need to rehearse with the couches there so they can change their blocking if needed!

A second floor has also been added!

 With two little rooms on the second floor!

There is a front door, and also a trapped door!

This set has a lot of fun little hidden tricks to it!

The set has been updated since these pictures, but to see the final set you have to come to the show!

I promise you will be blown away by how amazing this set looks!

A lot of people worked very hard on this set, some people had to leave classes so they could finish the set before opening day!

Sand-Which Boards!

                                                      

So the Thursday and Friday shows are about to begin! That means the Chantilly theater production of "You Can't Take It With You" is almost done! So exciting, but sad!

Even though a lot of tickets have already been bought online ( chantillyhsdrama.com tickets are $8 online!) Publicity needs to push the show until the last minute!

Sand which boards are a really fun and easy way of getting the show out there!

          

The key with Sand which boards is you have to write minimal information, but in really big letters so people can read them from their cars!

You should do both sides of the boards so that people driving on either side of the road can read the board and hear about the show!

The minimal information includes the show title, the upcoming dates and the ticket price!

Super fun!
