As part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, shuzsociety.com® is participating in a 14-show Broadway fundraiser called Ladies Night Out On Broadway. It is a brilliant way to do what ladies do best -- have fun, network, do good -- all at the same time. This kind of diva-level multi-tasking is the brainchild of The League of American Theatres and Producers, and of course they invited shuzsociety.com® to join the club. "We just love the spirit of LNOOB and we're thrilled to be a part of this unique event because SHOES go hand-in-hand with any event involving women" says shuzsociety.com® founders, Cindy Marshall and Joni Marshall Floyd.
Our New York shuzsociety.com® team organized a raffle grand prize - seven pairs of high, kidskin boots that are made in Italy and will be individually decorated and signed by stars for the October 24 fundraiser. Kai Harrison, President for Product Development for the J.Renee shoe company masterminded the charity boot bonanza, arranging for his factory on Italy to have the boots made in three days. He chose the skin and the color palette to give the stars an opportunity to do wonderful,creative stuff and turn the boots into works of art. "I look forward to seeing the designs made on the boots by the stars. I am really excited that I can play a part in this event, it's for such a great cause" he said.
Twelve Broadway shows are participating in 'Ladies Night Out' including, A Chorus Line, The Color Purple, Curtains, Hairspray, Legally Blonde (the Musical), Les Miserables, Mamma Mia!, Mary Poppins, Monty Python's Spamalot, The Phantom of the Opera, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, and Xanadu Two Off Broadway shows are participating: The Fantasticks and Stomp. And, with the purchase of a "Ladies Night" theatre ticket to any of the participating Broadway or Off Broadway shows, you're invited to the party at Spotlight Live. Go to our Events page www.shuzsociety.com/events for full details or click on www.LadiesNightOutOnBroadway.com.
This ladies event is similar to other successful League audience development programs (including 'Kids' Night on Broadway' and 'Singles Night on Broadway'). It includes special show discounts and an important charitable tie-in with the Phyllis Newman Women's Health Initiative of The Actors Fund, a program created to address the myriad of concerns women face when dealing with a serious medical condition.
"Women represent 63% of Broadway audiences and 66% of ticket purchasing decisions so LADIES NIGHT is our way of saying thank you. And we hope that the activities provided free this evening will remind our most loyal members about the variety of Broadway offerings and will give this very engaged demographic yet another reason to join us for an additional night on Broadway full of fun and entertainment," commented Charlotte St. Martin, Executive Director, League of American Theatres and Producers.
Participating shows will host post-show talk backs that correspond with online show discussion guides made available on the event website. These online discussion guides for women interested in creating "theatre clubs," provides the opportunity to form meaningful connections with like-minded women.
Ladies Night Out on Broadway is sponsored by Spotlight Live, The New York Times, Budweiser Select and shuzsociety.com®, an online magazine and networking site for shoe lovers. As a part of the raffle, shuzsociety.com® will raffle one of a kind Broadway Boots decorated by each participating show. All proceeds will be donated to the Phyllis Newman Women's Health Initiative of The Actor's Fund. Media partners are WNBC 4, ivillage.com, and 106.7 LITE-FM.
