Annual Theatre Fundraiser for our Scholarship Fund

From a story by Henry James

Sunday, September 12 at 2:00 pm

Oldcastle Theater, 331 Main Street, Bennington

Join us at our annual branch outing to the Oldcastle Theatre to see The Turn of the Screw. We have reserved a block of tickets for a Sunday matinee performance.

From the Oldcastle’s website: “A Victorian era governess is hired to work at an estate and care for two orphaned children. After learning about the deaths of her predecessor and the former groundskeeper, the governess is haunted by the images of their ghosts. But are the ghosts real or merely figments of her imagination?”

Our wish is to support Oldcastle during this time while we are also supporting our main goal: fundraising for our local scholarships. Because all general admission tickets at the theatre this year have been reduced to $25, we did not want to take advantage of their lower group rate. As a result, we will be charging $35 for each ticket—$25 for the price of the ticket, $10 for our scholarship. If you wish, a larger donation would be most welcomed and much appreciated.Please clip and mail with your check (payable to AAUW) to:

Madeline Kennedy, 169 Fox Hill Road, Bennington, VT 05201.

Deadline: September 4th by mail.

Oldcastle has a new air re-circulation system to conform to Actor’s Equity theatre requirements. Masks are required. Questions? Contact Madeline at 802-447-7996 or mmk.bfk@gmail.com
