Equity Showcase Presents: WalledIN – Supporting the Power of Theatre
We at Equity Showcase are thrilled to announce our upcoming production of the gripping and thought-provoking play titled "WalledIN." As a platform committed to supporting emerging artists and fostering community engagement, we are seeking support from kind-hearted donors like you to help us bring this captivating story to life through a public reading.
Why "WalledIN"?
Written by Al Bernstein, "WalledIN" delves into the human experience with a profound exploration of Briar Fraser, a bipolar teenage girl struggling with her coping resources. This poignant and timely play sheds light on the walls that divide communities and individuals surrounding the topic of mental health in our youth and the systems in place, offering an introspective and impactful narrative that resonates with audiences on a deep level.

The Power of a Public Reading
A public reading is a vital step in the development of any theatrical work. By showcasing "Walled In" to a wider audience, we can gather valuable insights and feedback to further refine the play's script and make it even more potent. This initial presentation also helps in attracting potential collaborators, artistic partners, and producers who can contribute to the work's future development and potential full-scale production.
How You Can Help
We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to experience the transformative power of theatre. However, staging a public reading comes with its own financial demands, and this is where we kindly request your support. By making a donation towards our fundraising campaign, you directly contribute to:
1. Maintaining a high standard of artistic excellence by providing fair compensation for our talented ensemble of actors, directors, and production team members.
2. Acquiring a suitable venue and all the necessary technical equipment to ensure a seamless and immersive reading experience for our audience.
3. Covering the costs of marketing and promotion, enabling us to spread the word far and wide, inspiring more individuals to join us on this extraordinary theatrical journey.
A huge thank you to all the talented artists who were part of the workshop reading, including Sadie Snow, Tracey Hoyt, Vivien Shepherd, Shaquille Pottinger, and Craig Lauzon as well as the Director and Dramaturg for the WalledIN play, Allegra Fulton.
