“Tell me something from when I was little. It doesn't have to be well said, just give me anything. Give me me.”

Truthful, compassionate and warmly funny I Do I Don't traces the forgotten past of our storyteller, filling in the gaps through the recounted memories of her family...with a touch of jazz hands.
 
The world premiere of this ground-breaking show will be in Canada in June and July. After this, we will present a schmick version in Australia in a city or town near you!

Currently the production is being funded with talent and love but we do need some funds to help us get started.

How The Funds Will Be Used

We have set our campaign target at a minimum which will help us build a set, make snazzy costumes, projector hire and rehearsal room costs. If we can get over the target, we will be able to assist with some travel costs and maybe a small fee to the great artists involved. This will help relieve some financial stress that is involved with putting on an independent show like this.

The Challenges

Time is of the essence. I will be leaving for Canada early June. The plan for dealing with this is to work and work and work.

90s dance facebook group

You will be added to a VIP facebook group. Whitney will do a freestyle dance to a 90s song most days in the lead up to Canada. They will be uploaded to this very special group. This will provide joy in your life.
