Mansfield, Kimmel, Philadelphia Fundraiser!!

My brother and his friends at Push Productions are holding a fundraiser for a show called "It's Not Even Past" (written by Tim Mansfield and directed by my brother, Michael) that they're bringing to Philadelphia for the Fringe Festival in September.

And, in case you're curious, this is what you're saving my brother from having to do (yes, that's really him)...

Details for the fundraiser are available by clicking below. Check it out and spread the word!!

Thanks!

Jim

From Tim Mansfield and Michael Kimmel:

Every once in a while, an event comes along. This is one of those times…

Everyone,

In preparation for the Philadelphia Fringe Festival in September, Tim Mansfield, Michael Kimmel, and everyone involved with “It’s Not Even Past” would like to invite you, your family, your friends, and their family and friends to a throw-down, gala fundraiser for the play. Seriously, everyone is welcome; the more the merrier; you get the picture…More details? You got it, friend:

When? Saturday, August 7th, 8pm-Midnight

Where? Briarcliffe American Legion in Glenolden, PA (*simple directions below)

What? A fundraiser/silent auction to support “It’s Not Even Past,” which is running from September 2nd to 12th at the Walnut Street Theatre - Studio 5.

How? (As in, how does this help the play?) The cost for the evening is $12, which will go to Push Productions, the non-profit theater company producing the show. Money raised at the door and from the silent auction will help pay for theater rental, rehearsal space, and housing for our actors, as well as lighting, props, and transportation costs.

What else? Hmmm. Okay. Let’s see. We’ll be auctioning off lots of cool things, including: Phillies tickets; Cuban cigars (please don’t call the ATF on us); dinner for two in New York; golf outings; gift certificates for haircuts and colors for the ladies; and other items that will take your collective breath away. On top of that, you get a night of music, loads of food, courtesy of Tony Luke’s, and a shot to win some money in that grandest of fundraising traditions, the 50/50.

And if your throat gets dry during the evening, we have a contingency plan for that, as well! Beer, wine, and soft drinks will be available all night at extremely friendly rates.

What should you do? Mark August 7th on your calendars, reserve the babysitter, and get ready to spend the night eating, drinking, and bidding with us. Also, give Tim a call (484 459 9001) or drop an email to mansfield9@hotmail.com so we can get a general idea of how many people to expect. Thanks so much in advance for helping us to bring the play home. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone there…

Best wishes,

Tim and Michael
