“Can I have $17.50?”

  2. “Can I have $17.50?”

Remember that scene from It’s A Wonderful Life when, on the way to their globetrotting honeymoon, George and Mary return to the Bailey Building & Loan, and use their travel money to help their neighbors get through the next day, week, month, and beyond?

There’s no second thought. Mary just raises her hand and says “How much do you need?” And then kind, lovely, adorable Miss Davis selflessly asks, “Can I have $17.50?”

People working together to support each other; sharing their own resources to not only get their neighbors through, but help them realize the next possible wonderful thing.

All of the wonderful things we’ve done at Act II have been possible because of the support of generous neighbors, and audience members, and Miss Davis’ who support the Playhouse year after year. We are endlessly grateful for and inspired by the shared effort to support the musicals, cabarets, plays, classes, special events, and next wonderful things that your donations make possible. 

Whether it’s $17.50, or $1750.00, every dollar helps. Here are some great and easy ways to give to Act II.
