SPREAD SOME LOVE THIS SEASON: Support opportunities!
Support an upcoming All Black Production in the works by a Colorado Springs Producer!
BiTCHHAÜS Productions is looking for some sponsorship for a show in February! Here is what Boujie Bitch had to say:
”For my shows, I pay performers and support a $50 minimum. For February, BıTCHHAÜS Productions is obviously going to put on an all black show, and I would like to pay them more than my normal amount. SO I need some support - I'm looking for sponsors for the show. If you have something we can throw into a giveaway/notraffle let me know, or you can simply support monetarily by pledging a dollar amount that will go directly to the cast and crew. Send me a message to let me know what you can do. ALSOOO the best and easiest way to support? Buy tickets, come watch the show, and tip these beautiful humans. And share this post to your network! Love yall”
