PPAC Launches AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN-Inspired “Who Lifts You Up?” Campaign

Do you have someone in your life who "lifts you up" when you are feeling low? They could be a friend, a romantic partner, a parent, a sibling, or even a pet! Inspired by the iconic "lift" scene in the film An Officer and A Gentleman and in the musical AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN, film a short video of you being lifted by or lifting a special someone in your life (we would suggest lifting your pet, for example)!

Upload the video to your Instagram account, follow/tag @ProvPACRI, and use the hashtag #loveliftusOAG in your post for a chance to win a pair of tickets to the opening night performance of AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN at PPAC on Friday, February 18. Winners will also receive $50 in gift certificates to Providence Coal Fired Pizza. Entries will be accepted until Thursday, February 10. Winners will be contacted on Friday, February 11, right before Valentine's Day!
