The Dancing Curtain, LLC, a comedy business based in Ridgefield, CT, has applied for a Pepsi Refresh grant to provide a month of free comedic entertainment to the people of California. Khristee Rich, President of The Dancing Curtain, is writing a comedic one woman play she hopes to perform for the people of the San Francisco Bay area. This idea would spread laughter and joy to 2,000 people, possibly up to 4,000 people at a 200 seat theater in San Francisco.
California has the highest unemployment rate in the U.S., the highest homeless population in the U.S., and is near bankruptcy. What can you do to help? Vote for The Dancing Curtain’s Pepsi Refresh idea daily throughout May (until May 31) to uplift and inspire people in California.
To vote, visit Pepsi’s Web site www.refresheverything.com and sign up to create a Pepsi account. You will be asked for your email and to create a password. After your account is set up either search for Dancing Curtain in the search bar and vote on The Dancing Curtain’s page or copy and paste www.refresheeverything.com/spreadlaughterinsanfrancisco into your browser. Alternatively, the easiest and quickest way to vote is via text messaging. Text your vote to Pepsi (73774) and type in 105934 into your message. You will receive an automatic thank you from Pepsi for voting. You can also visit Pepsi’s site and sign in via your Facebook page to vote. You can vote using these 3 methods each day.
To boost votes, use Power Vote Codes. Power Vote codes are alphanumeric codes found on select containers of Pepsi. Purchase bottles of Pepsi in any size and look for a Power Vote Code printed under the cap or if you prefer, purchase a 12 pack or 24 pack of Pepsi and search for a Power Vote Code on the reverse side of the wrapping. Power Votes are worth anywhere from 5 votes up to 100 votes per code, so take advantage! Power Vote Codes should be applied to your vote when voting online. Click on the Power Vote link to use your code. You may use up to 10 Power Vote Codes daily.
If you cannot vote, but would like to support your local comedy company and the arts in California, please mail your Pepsi caps to:
The Dancing Curtain, LLC
67 Saint Johns Road
Ridgefield, CT 06877
Please send caps by May 24 to allow time for processing.
The Dancing Curtain will also be collecting Pepsi caps at various restaurants and delis in town through May 27. Look for a jar at the front counter to drop your Pepsi caps at the following local restaurants: Planet Pizza, Genoa Deli, Steve’s Bagels, Village Pizza and Pasta, and Village Deli. The Dancing Curtain would like to thank these businesses for their support.
Instead of tossing your Pepsi caps in the trash, drop them off at these restaurants or mail them to The Dancing Curtain. Your votes and your Pepsi caps could make a huge difference in whether The Dancing Curtain receives this grant.
