The Salem Theatre Company has kicked off a $5,000 Gala London Theater Trip contest, a fund raising raffle that offers the winner a trip to London for two, including roundtrip airfare, 3 nights accommodations, two theatre tickets to two different performances of the winner’s choosing, and $500 to cover meals and other expenses.
Only 250 tickets will be sold at $100 each, and the drawing will take place at the Salem Theatre Company, 90 Lafayette Street, Salem, MA on Saturday, May 28, 2011 at 6:00 p.m. The winner does not need to be present to win.
“This is a very exciting way for people to support local, live theatre and help the Salem Theatre Company set up a financially secure and exciting Season Nine,” explained Executive Director Gary LaParl. “And limiting the number of tickets to be sold gives every ticket holder a great chance at winning, and in taking a once-in-a-lifetime trip into the heart of one of the world’s foremost theatre venues.”
The winner will have up to 1 year to redeem the prize. The value of this prize may vary slightly due to seasonal airfares and hotel rates; however the maximum value is capped at $5,000.00.
Raffle tickets will be for sale at The Art Corner, 264 Washington Street in Salem (Phone 978-745-9524), from Board and Staff of the theater, the STC Theater Box Office (90 Lafayette Street) one hour before show times on all show dates for Painting Churches (May 12 through June 4) and online now at www.salemtheatre.com.
