The same promotion format will apply to HBTI's next show, *Oklahoma!*: buy two tickets and bring in a donation of canned or boxed goods (such as soup, stew and cereal) to benefit the Greater Cleveland Food Bank at the Friday, August 7th performance of *Oklahoma! * You will then receive a third ticket free at the door. “We had a wonderful response to our first drive for *Rent* and wish to continue our support,” added Ms. Katz. “So help those less fortunate members of your community, support the incredible young talent in the area, and have an exciting evening of musical theatre entertainment in the process.” *About our Little Women partner*: Since 1977, the West Side Catholic Center has offered hot meals, hospitality, clothing and household goods, emergency services, advocacy, a women and children's shelter, and a housing solutions program to those in need at no charge, regardless of religious affiliation. The West Side Catholic Center was established in 1977 by several area churches that saw a critical need within the community due to extreme poverty. They are a unique, private, not-for-profit agency with Catholic roots, independent of the Catholic Diocese and Catholic Charities.
