Let Your School Plays Have a Fully-packed Audience

Different Ways to Promote Your School Theater Play Successfully

For school plays, the usual suspects for your audience are friends, family, and schoolmates. But with all the hard work poured into your three-day theater performance, to fill up the theater seats to outsiders as well can be more rewarding.

Promotions for a theater production can be prolonged even after a theater show. This way, you can promote your concepts and build a following for other plays you have planned for succeeding years. By promoting through different kinds of print materials, like those offered in online websites like UPrinting, you maximize gathering an audience and documenting the success of the theater event.

1. Pre Promotions: For promotions before the big day, you can send out postcard invites to acquaintances, far relatives, and former schoolmates. A postcard campaign through direct mailing services can be one way to distribute your theater invites.

2. Post Promotions: After the event, you can use the Internet as a tool to promote your play. By adding excerpts from your play or a full length video, you get to document your play to another audience. This can also serve as a reference for some of the target audience who were not able to attend. Also, a brochure of some screen shots of your play can be a good tool for post production promotions just before the next school play begins. This way, you get to use your brochure for both the previous play and for pre promotions for your next school play.

3. Web Promotions: By joining social networking sites like Facebook.com and Twitter.com, you can post your ads for free and get a bunch of responses right away. Also, through blogging about excerpts of your school play, you can better spread and promote your invitations and your upcoming show.

By combining different strategies in promoting your school play, you get to strengthen your campaigns more and gain a much larger target market than expected.
