For the Love of Theatre and Charity

In the spirit of 18th century French salons (where salon is defined as a gathering of people under the roof of an inspiring host, held partly to amuse one another and partly to refine the taste and increase the knowledge of the participants through conversation), MMQ Theatre presents 4 Fridays 4 Love -- the February Theatre Salon series.

Join one or all four Fridays (February 1, 8, 15 and 22) and be entertained with four short comedies each night while nibbling on delicious canapes and drinking free flowing champagne.  For just P2,000 per ticket you get to enjoy the shows, network with the who's who of society and help worthy causes as all proceeds go to MMQ charities.

For more information on the event and the venues, please contact Iris at iris.ea@mmqtheatre.com or mobile at 0927-3839517.  You may also visit MMQ Theatre's website at www.mmqtheatre.com, Facebook at facebook.com/mmqthtr and follow them on Twitter at twitter.com/TheatreMMQ.
