The Good Company, a scrappy self-produced off-off-off Broadway theatre company, is rehearsing its next big show: a play about Sally Hemings and Thomas Jefferson. Writer Luce is playing Sally; her partner in romance and art, Mike, is both directing the production and playing Tom. What could possibly go wrong?
We are thrilled to announce that the Virginia Stage Company contributed $1,000 to Paint Pink during the October 18th performance of Dracula: A Feminist Revenge Fantasy, Really. This generous donation not only highlights the company’s commitment to supporting vital causes but also honors the incredible work of Paint Pink’s founder, Kim Keene.
Paint Pink is dedicated to raising awareness about breast cancer and empowering those affected by the disease. The funds raised will help support initiatives that provide education, resources, and support to individuals and families navigating the challenges of breast cancer.
The intersection of art and activism is beautifully embodied in this collaboration. As audiences gathered to enjoy a thought-provoking performance, they were also reminded of the power of community and the impact of giving back. This production celebrates women and shines light on challenges that they face. Supporting Paint Pink is the perfect complement to that.
We are grateful to our audiences and supporters for making this important contribution possible. Together, we can continue to foster awareness and create change, one performance at a time. Let’s keep the momentum going!
