the “et•y•mol•o•gy” event

The dinner was a great success! Thank you all for coming and supporting “etymology”!

A special thank you to Vios and Thomas Soukakos, Tangerine Spa, the staff at Vios who volunteered their time, MoZo, the Von Piglets, and our photographer Lauren Max!

We are about 75-80% funded! We still need about $1500 to reach our goal.

If you feel like throwing a few bucks at the project, but dinner wasn’t your thing, you can donate ANY amount by going to http://click4tix.com/Etymology and choosing “Donation Only” and entering the amount you’d like to donate on the checkout page.

About the Project

Jennifer Jasper’s January 2014 14/48 play “et•y•mol•o•gy” was selected as one of 30 plays out of nearly 1,400 submissions to be presented at the 39^th Samuel French Off Off Broadway Short Play Festival in NYC at Playwrights Horizons this August. “et•y•mol•o•gy”is the only play in the Final 30 from a Northwest-based playwright this year.

The Final 30 playwrights have to present a production of the play for the competition and Jennifer has teamed up with The 14/48 Projects to do just that. We need to send Jennifer and the two actors, Megan Ahiers and Trick Danneker, to NYC for four days to represent Jennifer, 14/48, Seattle, and to win this competition!

We need about $8,000 to fly Jennifer Jasper, Megan Ahiers and Trick Danneker to NYC, give them a place to stay, feed them, and pay them a stipend while they in NY representing Seattle theater.
