As you all know BIG FISH has been a very special show here at Theatre at the Center not only because of the content but because of our cast and crew coming together to do the show in memory of our dear friend Bernie Yvon who tragically died last September while on his way to rehearsal at our theatre. Bernie had been cast as Edward Bloom, the leading role, before his death. Bill Pullinsi, our director, was able to engage the remarkable Stef Tovar to take on the challenging role. Stef came to us with a wonderful idea to add an extra performance during the final week of the run for the theatre community, with all proceeds being directed to the Bernie Yvon memorial fund, which provides scholarships to promising students in the performing arts.

We are pleased to announce that Theatre at the Center will be adding an extra performance on Wednesday, June 3rd at 7:30PM.

Tickets will be on sale for a suggested donation of $15 with general admission seating. You may call to reserve tickets beforehand at the box office at any time within the next week. Only CASH or CHECKS made out to the Bernie Yvon Memorial Fund will be accepted at the box office the night of the show-- we will not be able to accept any debit or credit cards. By special arrangement with Actors Equity Association, all our performers, musicians, staff and crew are donating their time to this wonderful cause. Theatrical Rights Worldwide, the licensing agency for the show and its creators have agreed to waive their royalties to also contribute to Bernie?s Memorial Fund.

?The Bernie Yvon Memorial Fund was established by Bernie's parents to encourage and assist students who wish to pursue a career in the Performing Arts. Your donation will help fund the education of selected students and support organizations who embody the passion and spirit that Bernie shared with us all on stage and off. The scholarship will be available for any higher education institutions in the United States, from community colleges to universities?
