Letter to Parents about us not being able to secure the Summer Grant from Plano. :'(
Dear Parents,
This Summer will be a little different. In the past, ACT has managed to cobble together enough money in grants and underwriting to comp your children into summer camps for free. In reality, these camps cost us about $700 per child for a 2 week stay. This year, one of our major underwriters did not have the ability to continue to donate and underwrite its portion of the Summer Camps, This leaves us with a $400 defect per child. However, through some great leadership and planning, ACT anticipated such a possibility and has successfully saved enough in concessions sales to offer an additional $100 savings to returning ACT campers on top of the $300 in underwriting from other sources and ACT families. So if you have been to ACT in the past year we can knock the camp price down to $300 from the $700 actual total cost. That is cheaper than DAYCARE! You will still get all the ACT perks; singing, dancing, music, drama and PAUL and as an added incentive this year we are going to let the kids do a show every two weeks (details are shown in each camp online). We will still offer free lunch, we will still go to Hawaiian falls at a deep discount, we will still have water wars and all the fun just like every year, with a few surprises we can talk about later, they are BIG! . We wish we could keep doing it all for free, but everyone is struggling right now. We HAVE managed to comp more than half the costs for you and we have lifted the restrictions on having to be a PLANO resident in order to join. So now ANYBODY can have "A PLACE TO ACT FOR LIFE!" We are excited to see you all!!!!!

Satire Summary:
From the destructive and terrifying mind of Clive Childress comes a musical like no other.
Reefer Madness! A sensational epic; warning "of an evil menace destroying the youth of America in alarmingly increasing numbers: Marijuana"! What will happen to the Teenage and all-upstanding-American Jimmy Harper, and his Highschool sweetheart Mary Lane once the insidious reefer makes it's way into their patriotic White, Suburban, Americana home town.
The Real Summary:
The musical is a over-dramatic satire on the original propaganda film made in 1938 to fear monger and segregate communities around the country. Using the famous tag line of: "We're doing this to save the children of America" to spread their "patriotic" propaganda message, and it worked. The Musical Version takes their work to reveal the absurd lies they would detail in the original film to mock, entertain, and be hopeful for a better future in America.
