PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT For Immediate Release April 21, 2003 IRONDALE PARTY & AUCTION MAY 2, 2003 The Irondale Ensemble Project’s Party & Auction fundraiser is back – complete with delicious food, funny auctioneers, and even the occasional puppet show. Friday, May 2 7 p.m. 989 Young Avenue (The Women’s Council House) Tickets are $10 ($12 at the door) Cash Bar Call 429-1370 or email aritchie@chebucto.ns.ca to reserve yours. The evening promises to be a fun, tasty & festive way for you to lend support to the work that Irondale has been doing for the last dozen years or so. There’ll be some great entertainment by ensemble artists, and tons of great stuff will be auctioned (live & silent) throughout the evening - art, services and other goodies. A bit of background… The Irondale Ensemble Project is a theatre company in its thirteenth season in Nova Scotia. Since starting in 1990, the artists in the ensemble have proudly carried out the company’s mission. They have spent their artistic energy looking at, exploring, exploding and trying new ways of making and using theatre. Working with every different group you can think of – youth, seniors, judges & lawyers, fishers, doctors, government departments, therapists, clergy, union workers, new Canadians, actors – everybody. Currently, the ensemble is busy with a number of projects, including: a work on a province wide “Don’t Start” project with The Lung Association of Nova Scotia, workshops with physicians through Cancer Care NS, our long time project of an Open Workshop on Thursday nights and an ongoing long term residency in the St. Pat’s Alex school community. The office and studio theatre are located in this inner city school. Company members continue to work in partnership with the community, developing and implementing programs that support artistic and economic development in the area. Over the lifespan of the company, members have created more than 20 original theatre and dance works, most recently having staged a new version of The Good Society in Tatamagouche as a benefit for community initiatives there on March 29th. To keep doing this work, and to continue to find ways of engaging Nova Scotians as audiences and participants, we need help. So come out on May 2nd, support a good cause and have some fun at the same time. Call 429-1370 or email aritchie@chebucto.ns.ca for information or to reserve tickets. www.irondale.ca _______________ Andrea Ritchie Costume Designer/ Producer/ Administrator (902)431-9217 aritchie@chebucto.ns.ca If a friend forwarded this email to you, please consider joining sust-mar yourself.
