About the fundraiser:
We are raising $25,000 in our efforts to cover production costs for Vie Boheme's one womans show CENTERPLAY which will premiere during The Guthrie Theater’s Spring presentation in the 9th floor Dowling Studio- March 20th-28th, 2020. $4,648 have already been raised through an Indiegogo crowd funding campaign.
We anticipate CENTERPLAY serving 1,100 patrons over 6 performances. We also anticipate Vie's community engagement initiative, The CENTERPLAY Workshop Experience, serving 60 women of color across Minneapolis. Although The Guthrie covers marketing, box office, community engagement connections, accessibility and crew members to support running CENTERPLAY, we still have significant pre-production overhead costs.
All proceeds support:
Set Design

Sound engineer
Two Musicians (composition and performance)
Costumes
Documentation
Directorial Advisor
Event Insurance
Project Manager
Yoga mats, yoga blocks, yoga straps, storage containers, refreshments and snacks for the yoga focused community engagement activities

Benefits include increased capacity for upper and lower body integration, increased blood flow through the body and joints, increased proprioception and teaches one to use the ancient practice of uddiyana bandha, core lock, to allow for intentional direction of energy and awareness.
