President's Message
Welcome to Phoenix's one night fund raising show. I would like to thank everyone involved in the show - performers, musicians, production team members and sponsors, who have generously given their time at such short notice to help us in our hour of need. A very special vote of thanks must go to our life member and director of our variety shows - Craig Maloney, who has delved deep into his memory to bring to life the routines he has devised over the years.
The shows we are presenting excerpts from tonight are -
Musical Time Warp - Cabaret Style
Phoenix in Hollywood
Phoenix on Tour - Variety Show
Finally a special thanks to you - the audience, for coming along tonight to offer us your support. We hope to see you all in November for our production of WORKING, because it is through tonight's generous support, we will be able to produce it. We hope that you enjoy the show and remember - "If you enjoyed it tell others; if you didn't tell us!"
