"Noises Off" and Greenville Forward


Last Thursday, Greenville Forward was given the opportunity to partner with the Greenville Little Theatre for a fundraising and awareness building evening while enjoying the production of "Noises Off."

It was the first event of its kind for Greenville Forward and was a wonderful chance to celebrate the arts, a major part of Vision 2025, and to spend more time in front of a new audience to convince them why our mission is worthy of their support. Some of the guests of the evening came because they met us at the Upstate Women's Show so it was great to see tangible success from that event.

Though we did not sell as many tickets as we would have liked to fill the house for the hardworking actors and Greenville Little Theatre staff, the intimate group laughed loud enough at the hilarious scenes of the play to make up for it.

Prior to the show, we held a cocktail party that continued on during the two intermissions of the play. This was a valuable time for Russell to share with our guests about our upcoming plans and to give away some of our new Greenville Forward baseball hats and Columbia fleece.

Thanks so much to the Greenville Little Theatre for the gift of this evening and go see "Noises Off" as soon as you can!
