This proved to be a successful fundraiser last year and everyone that attended had a great time sampling wines and beers and catching up with other OTS players. Spouses, girlfriends, significant others and friends are invited to attend this event.

Okay, Dear Family and Close Old and Close New Friends – Here’s your final FEARLESS! update (for 2015)!

· We have officially designated Habitat for Humanity and the nationally-reputed (Cookeville-based) Bryan Symphony Orchestra as primary beneficiaries of the World Première Performance proceeds.

· With a pledge of intellectual support from Tennessee Tech University, we have engaged top TTU stage production talent for Orchestra Leader, Mendy Richards, and the University’s outstanding Theatre Director as FEARLESS! Director: Mark Harry Creter (See Mark’s wealth-of-experience résumé, attached).

[NOTE: Next Update in January will detail Mendy’s background and announce the FEARLESS! Choreographer]

· We have a professional, new, Nashville-produced documentary video: “The Creation of FEARLESS!” which will soon appear on the website www.FEARLESStheMusical.com and will also be posted on YouTube, as well as excerpted for PBS-TV and Nashville network TV affiliates.

· We have received declarations of sponsorship interest from over 60 area businesses with assurances of specific decisions in January. We are expecting to more than double that number in the next 30 days.

· A Women’s “Patron-of-the-Arts” fundraising Tea is scheduled for January 16th at the lovely home of a mutual friend who is a prominent and highly respected community leader.

· A short magazine article draft has been prepared (attached) and will be distributed in January.

· We have tentative agreement with a top technical stage lighting talent team from Nashville, and have developed a short list of leading stage-experienced audio engineer prospects.

· The open-audition and rehearsal schedule is being finalized and expected to begin the first week of May. To date, a great many aspiring and experienced musicians, singers, dancers, actors, actresses have expressed enthusiasm for trying out.

· AMAC (the competitor to AARP) with a couple of million members has agreed to provide promotional attention to FEARLESS! on their website and in their digital newsletter that gets distributed nationwide to AMAC Membership.

There you have it, all the news that’s fit to print straight from the horse’s mouth . . .

Stay tuned, and have a great Christmas followed by a happy and healthy and prosperous New Year!

Hugs – Hal & Val
