San Diego Theatre Connection Announces THREE THRONG THEATRE-A-THON

By:
Three leading community theatres and two of San Diego County's premier charities come together for a CA$H MOB to help homeless youth and people living with HIV/AIDS and cancer. Every dollar counts to provide music education through the Doors Of Change music and art program for homeless youth 12-24 years of age.

Mama's Kitchen delivers almost 350,000 meals a year to families living with a chronic and terminal diagnosis involving HIV/AIDS and cancer. The CA$H MOB fundraising movement runs May 5-June 18th during productions running at Patio Playhouse in Escondido, Lamplighters Community Theatre in La Mesa, and PowPac Community Theatre in Poway.

Attend a performance at one of our member theatres and donate some cash to pay for meals at Mama's Kitchen (www.mamaskitchen.org) or to pay for instruments, music lessons, and clothing for homeless young people in the Doors of Change program (www.doorsofchange.org).

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? May 5th-May 28th This 1962 drama by Edward Albee examines the marriage breakdown of a twisted middle-aged couple with secrets. A drunken evening exposes painful truths while also entangling a young couple in the dispute.
