Sponsor The First Day in December

'The First Day in December,' is a powerful and moving play that explores the themes of community, brotherhood, and the impact of the Vietnam War on American lives. We invite you to become a sponsor and play a vital role in bringing this important story to our stage. Set on December 1, 1969, the play centers around five fraternity brothers anxiously awaiting the results of the U.S. Army's draft lottery for Vietnam. As the lottery unfolds, their lives are forever changed. The bonds of brotherhood are tested, tensions rise, and each young man faces the uncertain future that awaits him. The play beautifully captures the essence of community within college life, highlighting the support and shared experiences that define these crucial relationships. It's a story of transformation, resilience, and the enduring power of friendship in the face of adversity. Vietnam Veterans will be honored through this production, with a portion of the proceeds going to Castro Valley's American Legion and VFW. Meaningful Impact: Support a production that honors veterans and explores important themes of community and brotherhood. 
Anniversary Celebration: Be a part of Chanticleers Theatre's historic 75th anniversary season. 
Community Engagement: Connect with a diverse and engaged audience in the Castro Valley area.
 Your sponsorship will directly contribute to the success of 'The First Day in December ' and ensure that we can continue to bring high-quality, thought-provoking theatre to our community. This is a unique opportunity to demonstrate your commitment to supporting the arts and honoring our veterans. By becoming a sponsor, you're not just supporting a play; you're investing in the cultural enrichment of our community and helping us celebrate 75 years of theatrical excellence.
