...We Should Quit goes to Adelaide!

...We Should Quit is a comedy with circus and physical theatre interspersed throughout. It's really great, we even won an award (Best Circus Melbourne Fringe 2013).
After our season at Melbourne Fringe, we (Tom, Avan and Morgan) decided that it was time for our show to sprout wings and fly to Adelaide Fringe 2014 where more of the world can see it in all its existential glory.
So far all the funding has come straight out of our own pockets but now we need some help to do well in Adelaide.
Here's what we need from you. We need your money, you won't even notice it's gone and if you do you won't care because you'll remember what an amazing project it went to. It's kinda like a pyramid scheme where you give us money then tell all your friends to give us their money too... Except for then all the money goes in to making the show. Plus we're doing some super cool rewards, so you can have your very own genuine piece of ...We Should Quit!
Heck, we'll even take moral support, seriously it'll help our marketing campaign more then you could imagine. As for the moral support all you have to do is post messages on facebook saying things like "You can do it!" or "I believe in ...We Should Quit!" or "OH MY GOSH SO GOOD! I would sell a kidney to see that show again!"

The Challenges
Our biggest challenge will be competing with the the 969 other events and shows that are on as part of the fringe! Which is why we're investing in a print and social media marketing campaign. Speaking of which - check in with our website weshouldquitshow.wordpress.com we're about to launch a whole bunch of short videos into the world and if you love them laugh at them, you could also help us by spreading them around facebook and showing your friends.
A personalized thank on our website and on our facebook page.

We will call you, when you ever you want. Need to get out of that meeting? Got it covered. Trying to convince your mates that you slept with Anna Kournikova? No worries- we're really good at girly voices. Perhaps you've always dreamt of being the President, well we'll call and pretend that you are! Or we can just call you and let you know how much your support means to us. Personally I'd take the first option. *You do have to give us your phone number ;)

An original (not one of those lame replicas) Morgan Wilson Storyboard* from our video campaign. Antiques Roadshow has valued this as "not worth very much". Yours to own! *May or may not be the same as the print. You should probably just get the print to be honest.

A Dodgy Date* with Tom and Morgan! YOU can either double date us, or date one of us at a time, or both at the same time, or you could swap halfway through! ...But we need to keep an eye out for our girlfriends, but if they do show up it could turn into a quadruple date. We will even split the bill with you ;) You can talk to us about whatever you want, ask us about what inspired us, what we have planed next, or even pick our brains for ideas for your next piece. *Only in Melbourne

The Book Of Dreams. Where it all began. Every idea we've ever had for the show has been painstakingly scribbled and poured into this one glorious tome. We are giving you our show notebook filled with important information that we will probably need. But we are willing to part with it because we know it will go to someone who cares. Not to mention The Book of Dreams also contains Morgan's 3 original storyboards! *A must have item for any serious enthusiast!
