While no donation amount is too small (or too large) here are some suggestions for how to calculate the right amount for you:
- A typical Broadway Night Ticket costs $12, so consider donating $12 for each person you're watching with.
- There are 33 songs in this year's Broadway Night Show, so consider donating $1 for each song ($33)
- 85 students participated in Broadway Night this year (as either cast or crew), so consider donating $1 for each student ($85)
- From early October through mid November we had approximately 130 hours of rehearsal/filming, so consider donating $1 for each hour of rehearsal ($130).
- 100% of your donation goes to supplies and equipment for PAC shows, so consider donating as generously as you can. Any money we make above and beyond the cost of producing this show will go towards the cost of future productions, help fund new equipment purchases, pay for special programs/workshops and continue providing students a high-quality theater education.
ABOUT THE SHOW
Broadway Night is the PAC's annual Musical Theater Cabaret, which kicks off our season. Students perform classic show tunes and contemporary work from new musical theater composers in an evening of song, dance and storytelling.
Each year the show features over 20 solo, duet and group songs, with a mix of humor, heart, romance and high-energy fun, plus a dance number, choreographed by the PAC Musical Choreographer Jenny Lifson and an all-freshman number directed by upperclassmen. This year we have added an all-senior dance, an all-senior song and two other group numbers directed by upperclassmen. In addition, Tech Crew has created outdoor theater, complete with lighting and sound, and is learning video recording skills to capture to largest Broadway Night the PAC has ever produced. Broadway Night represents the core mission of the PAC, with an emphasis on showcasing student work. The performers have selected, staged and rehearsed the songs almost entirely on their own, with just a small amount of guidance from Ms. Lifson. In addition, the lighting design is done entirely by students, and the show ends with a student-directed number featuring the whole company |
