The Marcus Center is teaming up with Curves in the Greater Milwaukee Area to offer a special Enter-To-Win Giveaway on Saturday, May 18 at the 3:00 pm performance of Dixie's Tupperware Party for audience members. This hilarious show starring Dixie Longate -- which turned Off-Broadway into a Tupperware-mania celebration and garnered the prestigious 2008 Drama Desk Award Nomination -- rolls into the Marcus Center's Vogel Hall for a strictly limited engagement on May 14-26.

Saturday matinee attendees will be able to enter to win a package from the Curves Southeastern Wisconsin Co-op. The prize package includes a three-month Curves Complete weight-management membership and colorful gym bag, plus a Curves' "Tools for Success" kit filled with a two-week supply of vitamins and supplements, water bottle, high-quality pedometer, and a free upgrade for CurvesSmart. No purchase is required. Patrons can also enter to win by sending a postcard with name, address, and phone number to the Marcus Center Box Office at 929 North Water Street, Milwaukee, WI 53202. All mail entries must be received by Friday, May 17 to be eligible. Curves owners will be on hand to provide body fat analysis before the performance.

Dixie's Tupperware Party stars Dixie Longate, the fast-talking Tupperware Lady, who has packed up her catalogs and left her children in an Alabama trailer park to journey across America. Critics and audiences have howled with laughter as Dixie throws a good ol' fashioned Tupperware Party filled with outrageously funny tales, heartfelt accounts, FREE giveaways, audience participation, and the most fabulous assortment of Tupperware ever sold on a theater stage! Loaded with the most up-to-date products available for purchase, Ms. Longate will share how she became the number one Tupperware seller in the world as she educates her guests on the many alternative uses she has discovered for her plastic products.

Produced by Down South, LLC and directed by Patrick Richwood, Dixie's Tupperware Party will feature costumes designed by Miss Longate and lighting designed by Richard Winkler.
