This is the season where every Broadway show across the country competes to raise money for a cause which is near and dear to our hearts: Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. This year, in addition to giving proceeds from our cabaret to this worthwhile cause, Spring Awakening is auctioning off one of our Chairs of Rock! One chair will be signed by all the cast and band members. We're even going to get Blake Bashoff and Kyle Riabko to sign them in Costa Mesa!
The chair will be posted on the Broadway Cares Ebay website beginning on Monday, November 23rd or Tuesday, November 24th. It will be posted for ten days.

YOU TOO CAN WALK OFF WITH ONE OF OUR CHAIRS!

I want that chair soo bad. Do you know what the bidding is starting at?
That is awesome!
Nicholas, I don't know what the starting bid will be, don't even know if there's a minumum..but hopefully we'll fetch at least a few thousand dollars...
It's too bad that they can't do this as a raffle rather than an auction. At least it would give those who don't have hundreds or thousands of dollars, just a bit of hope of winning. :(
You're right, Tammy. That does seem more egalitarian, doesn't it?
I'm the Vice President of the Broadway Cares Club at my high school and we usually do a raffle, but I think that auctions probably generate a lot more money especially if people want the items badly enough. I want to bid on a Spring Awakening chair :)
