PlayhouseSquare has been attracting attention since 1921 for its entertaining
performances, the way audiences learn about and engage with performances has
changed over the years. PlayhouseSquare is linked-in to the <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place

experimenting with new ways to connect to audiences by offering online content
and social media interaction. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

social media tools is giving us a whole new way to effectively and efficiently
engage in two-way conversations with our audiences,” said Autumn
Kiser, PlayhouseSquare’s Director of Ticket Sales and Marketing.
“The video is just one platform for that relationship. People
come to see Broadway shows because they want to enjoy a fun evening of
entertainment. What better way to encourage that need than to provide
content they can share with their friends and followers?”<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

comedic series of videos intends to blur the line between the ordinary life in
the PlayhouseSquare office and neighborhood, with the often surrealism of show
business. How do the characters get to the theater? What is an
appropriate use of jazz hands? Where is the Fiddler when he is not on the
roof? See how PlayhouseSquare gets ready for the big personalities on the
KeyBank Broadway Series as the videos will be released sequentially starting
November 17, 2009. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

invites all everyone to submit their own video to show how they are
“Gettin’ Ready” for the 2009-2010 KeyBank Broadway

the public will vote for the top video and one grand prize winner will receive
a free subscription for two to the entire KeyBank Broadway Series. “Live
theater in its very nature is participatory,” said Autumn Kiser.
“This new online video contest enables fans to showcase their own
personalities, love for theatre, and reflect what we represent here at PlayhouseSquare.”
