sans-serif"><b>Attention Trey Parker Fans:</b></h1>
<p style="font-size:12pt; font-family:'Palatino Linotype',
'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif">Hi all!</p>
<p style="font-size:12pt; font-family:'Palatino Linotype',
'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif">If you love <i>The Book
of Mormon</i>, <i>South Park</i>, <i>Baseketball</i>,
<i>Team America</i>, etc. as much as I do, then you're
probably already aware of composer/playwright Trey
Parker's 1993 independent black comedy film, <b><i>Cannibal:
The Musical!</i></b></p>
<p style="font-size:12pt; font-family:'Palatino Linotype',
'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif">For the uninitiated, <i>Cannibal</i>
was a goofball musical comedy which Trey made in film
school, immediately prior to his rocket to stardom as
co-creator of <em>South Park</em>. It's a spoof of
classic 'western movie musicals' (<em>Oklahoma!</em>, <em>The
Music Man</em>) loosely based on the true story of a
mining party that died in a Colorado winter during the
Gold Rush. The film is full of the sophomoric humor, broad
characters, and satirical silliness that have made Trey
Parker, along with his partner Matt Stone, famous. </p>
<p style="font-size:12pt; font-family:'Palatino Linotype',
'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif">I will be directing a
stage adaptation of the film script at Chagrin Valley
Little Theatre's River Street Playhouse October 18 -
November 2 of this year (if you're interested, auditions
will be 8/8 and 8/9).</p>
<h2 style="font-size:18px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva,
sans-serif"><strong>It's A Shpadoinkle Campaign!</strong></h2>
<p style="font-size:12pt; font-family:'Palatino Linotype',
'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif">I am running a small
$5000 Indiegogo fundraiser* to make improvements to the
very rudimentary sound and lighting gear currently in the
River Street space. Ideally, I'd like to get a decent
quality small PA system, a permanent digital video
projector, and if there's enough left over, some new
lighting instruments or dimmers. I'm calling it the
"Shpadoinkle Campaign", after the opening number of the
show, "It's A Shpadoinkle Day".</p>
<p style="font-size:12pt; font-family:'Palatino Linotype',
'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif">Of course there are perks
for your tax-deductible donation, from name recognition
and personal promotion, up to t-shirts and posters, DVDs
and shirts from the original film, and even an exclusive
cast recording with karaoke tracks of some of the songs!</p>
<p style="font-size:12pt; font-family:'Palatino Linotype',
'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif">If you're a fan of Trey
Parker's work, or even if you just want to support the
theater and my show, please see the campaign video and
details at this URL:</p>
<h1 style="text-align:center; font-size:18px; font-family:

<p style="font-size:12pt; font-family:'Palatino Linotype',
'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif">
At the very least, I ask that you Facebook, tweet, or blog
about the campaign if you're able to. $5000 isn't much as
fundraisers go, and the more people I can reach, the
quicker the goal will be reached (or even surpassed) as
well. Donations are already coming in, and I'd love to
have NeOhio-PAL subscribers be a part of the success!</p>
<p style="font-size:12pt; font-family:'Palatino Linotype',
'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif">Thank you for your
support,<br>
Andrew Rothman</p>
