Miracle Theatre announced that hit comedy, The Garage Sale will be its next fundraiser performance next year.
This is to raise money to establish The Prince George Mobility Disorder Fund, which would be a permanent endowment to help those dealing with neurologically based mobility disorders.
Director and Designer Ted Price said they’re keen on establishing foundations like these.
“They’re there indefinitely. As the fund is in place, each year, people continue to contribute to it, especially people who are doing their estate planning.”
“It’s a fund that’s just always there and in most cases, continues to grow.”
Before the announcement, Miracle Theatre had already raised over $17,000, with more people checking out the play and getting tickets after the announcement.
“It takes the whole community to do this. When people come, and there’s a lot of new faces here today, these would be people from some of the families and caregivers of some of the individuals that have those conditions.” said Producer, Anne Laughlin.
“That’s great, because they will help spread the word.”
Funds will be raised through ticket sales, sponsorships, donations, and concession.
The play will run from March 26th to April 19th, Tuesday through Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., and 2 p.m. matinees Saturday and Sunday at the ArtSpace, above Books and Company.
Tickets can be purchased for $40 either at Books and Company, or by phone at 250-563-6637, with tickets for specific shows available in December.
