We have had the privilege of putting on pantomimes and plays in Maynooth for over 25 years and the main reason we can do this is down to the support we receive from many businesses and people here in Maynooth, and the surrounding areas. We like to keep it local and support local businesses in the production of our shows and getting shows to the stage and are so grateful to all of you for your support in return.
Last year, our pantomime, A Christmas Carol, had an almost sold out run with approximately 1500 tickets sold and we expect the same this year. Putting on a production of such a standard comes at a cost for community groups like ours, with no permanent home, rented rehearsal spaces needed up to four times a week, no public arts facilities in the town, and all overheads generally increasing.
We are seeking local businesses who may be in a position to assist us with financing this production in one of the following ways:
❖ By placing an advertisement in our programme (A5 in colour);
❖ By donating a raffle prize;
➢ We can organise people to collect any prize that you
might be willing to donate at the latest the week
before the show (24th – 30th of November).
❖ By becoming a main sponsor with sponsorship of between €200 and €500;
This includes a full page advertisement in our programme and tickets to a performance of your choice of The Sword in the Stone. We are happy to discuss any specific terms of sponsorship with potential sponsors.
All sponsors will be mentioned in the programme, thanked on our website annuadhaplayers.ie, in our newsletter (500+ subscribers), and thanked on our social media pages (1,400+ followers). We will also have local newspapers providing coverage of the show.
Please let us know by email to annuadhaplayers@gmail.com if you can assist us by the 2nd of November at the latest. All advertisements must be emailed to us as a PDF by the 16th of November before our programmes go to print.
Payment can be made by clicking on the amounts underlined above. If you would prefer to use an alternative form of payment, please let us know and we can arrange that with you.
If you took out an advertisement in our programme for last year’s Christmas Pantomime, and you would like to sponsor us again this year, please confirm if you’d like us to use the same ad as last year.
