WomanSong of Asheville is back and excited to take on HART Theatre April 23rd at Highland Brewing Company @12 Old Charlotte Highway.
Asheville – Get ready for an exhilarating local game show that combines the excitement of competition with the creative energy of the performing arts. We are thrilled to announce the launch of ‘?They Said What?’, a monthly game show based on a conglomeration of popular game shows you know and love. ‘?They Said What?’ will feature local performing arts organizations in a head-to-head competition, not for audiences, but to win financial support for their respective organizations. The winning team will walk away with half the gross proceeds from the evening’s ticket sales.
‘?They Said What?’ is set to revolutionize the world of local game shows by bringing together Asheville’s vibrant performing arts community and the thrill of audience participation. On the third Wednesday of each month, five (5) representatives each, from two local performing arts organizations will take center stage and go head-to-head, testing their knowledge and quick thinking. The winning team will earn half of the ticket sales from that month’s show. The other half will be dedicated to production expenses. This unique concept aims to support and celebrate the local performing arts community by providing a financial incentive to the winning organization. “We are incredibly excited to unveil ‘?They Said What?‘ to performing arts organizations and to the wider community,” said Stephanie Hickling Beckman, Different Strokes’ executive director. “By combining the thrill of competition with the mission of supporting local performing arts organizations, we hope to create a memorable experience for both participants and audiences.”
All shows begin at 6:00 pm and will be hosted by Different Strokes’ very own Zakiya Bell-Rogers, who will guide the teams and engage the audience throughout the competition. Audiences can expect an entertaining, and hilarious showdown as local nonprofit organizations compete for bragging rights and financial support. WomanSong of Asheville, returns on April 17th to face HART Theatre.
