Is there an entry fee?
Yes. We encourage our participants to raise the entry fee in their communities. After all, they have been exclusively selected to represent the married women in their areas. The entry fee covers the cost of doing business such as renting a theatrical facility, designing sets and music, as well as printing, advertising, social media, postage, work shops, etc. Space is provided in the official program book to recognize your supporters.
