Begin forwarded message: > Subject: FW: Special Invitation for more fun (& perhaps more therapeutic value) than hypnosis > Reply-To: <donna(a)donnanowak.com> > > Dear Clients of mine... > It’s not often that I invite clients to a “personal” event, and I hope you’ll appreciate this exception because it’s not often that I can unequivocally recommend an event to men and women of all ages. I’ve hosted this comedy performance as a “Fun”draiser twice before, and it is incredibly funny-- a “laugh-so-hard-your belly hurts” kind of event. > > And although it’s not related to hypnotherapy, I can certainly make a strong case for “The Six Ages of Woman” being a regression to other times in our lives (or that of our mother’s, sister’s or another female friend). In any case, I hope you can join me in Warrensville Heights on June 20th, as actress Mary Faktor presents her hilarious one-woman-show, "The Six Ages of Woman”. > > Yesterday, I had lunch with a friend who saw the show 10-15 years ago and said she’d LOVE to see it again. She put it right up there with “Menopause the Musical”, and that’s my feeling as well. > > Following are the highlights, and details can be found on the attached flyer: > > 6:30 Appetizer Reception (*Cash bar*) > 7:30 Showtime > Door Prize * Chinese Auction * 50/50 Raffle > Location: Renaissance Unity - 4853 Galaxy Parkway, Suite E, Warrensville Heights > Reserve Tickets by Friday June 12th > Cost: $30/ticket online at www.RenUnity.org or call 216.371.9301 > > I hope you can make it! > > ♥ Donna > > Actress Mary Faktor is a member of the Screen Actors Guild, American Federation Television & Radio Artists, Global Speakers Federation, and National Speakers Association. > >
