FAQ'S about presenting "Go, Granny D!"
ORGANIZING THE EVENT
VENUE or SPACE: What kind is needed?
No need to find a theater or stage. COMMUNITY ROOMS- at a library, church (UU, etc.), college, any center with "built-in audiences. Intimate rooms for 20-50 are best unless a large audience is pretty much guaranteed.
What must we provide?
A space and an audience. All else brought in.
How will it benefit us to sponsor it?
Fundraising, public awareness, empowering & inspiring action, such as voter registration or petition drives on the spot.
What will it cost to put it on?
No performance fee; actress & musician consider it a cause. Donations helping with travel expenses are welcome, not required.
PROMOTION
How do we start building interest & support?
Partner with any progressive groups, i.e. League of Women Voters (Granny D a 50-year member),
political clubs, Move to Amend, churches, especially UU's with their Social Justice emphasis.
Basic & free publicity: press release & photos (provided), email lists, newsletters, Facebook, Public Service Announcements.
