Offer to local charities, Would you like a medieval event as a winter fundraiser?
We are a local non-profit community theatre company from Brixham, and have a spare slot (Sunday January 13^th 2013) for our winter show A Medieval Christmas 1285. This is a family friendly show (whether you are 1 or 100), set in 1285 when King Edward I visited Exeter. It is suitable for any reasonable size hall or function room (no stage required) set up to look like a medieval hall and consists of a play with mumming, traditional carols, dance, live medieval harp music, etc.
We would like to offer this slot to a local (Devon, preferably Torbay) charity, as a free performance to help support them. We are pretty self contained, all that you would need to provide is the venue (must be in the area of Dartmouth, Kingswear, Brixham, Paignton, Torquay, and accessible to public transport as some of our members rely on the buses for getting around) and tables and chairs. We will of course also help with the advertising – we have a large advertising network for shows.
You can read more about us on our main website http://southdevonplayers.weebly.com.
If more than one local charity contact us, we will have to choose based on a member vote as to which charity they would most like to support. Please contact us before Sept 29^th 2012 as we are finalising our bookings in the next two weeks ready to start the publicity.

Oh wow, that is such a kind and cool offer, wish I was in your area, I'd definitely attend. Hope a local charity takes good advantage of your thoughtfulness.

Best wishes for many sales to all,

We had the slot booked for a charity performance previously, but due to the fact that they were not communicating for weeks on end, so nothing was getting finalised, we have had to give up on them, but the slot is stil available so this was the obvious choice - to offer it to another charity.

That is most kind, can't imagine some charity won't take you up on this, I know I would if I were a charity in your area. Of course I love medieval stories, so I may be a bit prejudiced.
