This is my revised script and I am not happy with the way it sounds. I need help making it sound much better. PLEASE HELP! I need it by 10:00 a.m. Eastern time. For any information you may need about the outreach and educational programs please go to www.austintheatre.org. for any statistics. The main goal is to talk about the underprivileged children and all the children we help and the great benefits they will receive with a donation. I think the part about the Story Wranglers needs to be shortened a little bit.

The script that needs to be revised

Hello, is this [Recipient's Name]? My name is Colleen Sinutko, and I'm calling from the PARAMOUNT & STATESIDE THEATRE. How are you doing this morning/afternoon/evening? I am just calling for a couple of quick things. First, I want to thank you for being a valued member of our audience family. Your presence at our performances and shows means everything to us!

I noticed that you joined us for SHOW NAME. May I ask you what was your favorite part of the show? We're thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful time!

The Paramount holds so much history and magic, doesn't it? From Harry Houdini's astonishing performances to present-day shows, it's been a journey worth cherishing!

Additional Facts:

The Paramount is such a staple to Austin! Paramount opened its doors on October 11, 1915, and it is absolutely incredible to think back at all the Paramount has seen and been through. In fact, in 1916 the world-famous Harry Houdini performed 8 shows at the Paramount where 5 students from The University of Texas challenged him to escape from a trick of their construction and he did!! His legacy lives on where you can see a carved hole just to the left of Saint Cecilia. This is where he performed a suspended levitation trick. (Question to the patron: Did you get a look at it last time youwere out?) The Paramount has soooo much history to it and we do so much to preserve it in its original state to this day."

The other reason for my call today is that every year, we get the chance to share a little bit about the incredible work we are doing off the stage. We have several outreach and educational programs and we are currently serving 22,000 underprivileged children and their families in the Austin area. Yet, even with our efforts there are still so many kids and families that could benefit from our programs! Are you familiar with any of our outreach and educational programs?

The one that is very close to my heart is The Paramount Story Wranglers. We bring in professional arts educators who work with the students directly for a seven-week residency, teaching them the fundamentals of creative writing through arts-integrated lessons. These lessons truly motivate the children to enhance their writing and creativity skills, boost their confidence, and help them find their unique voices!

During this program, the children produce hundreds of stories. At the end of the seven weeks, our professionalactors, and educators, known as The Paramount Story Wranglers, bring these original stories from the page to the stage in a breathtaking live performance for the entire school and their families. It's truly magical, and the impact it has on these children, who would not otherwise have access to such arts education opportunities is incredible. It becomes a lifelong memory, and the results really speak for themselves! In fact, 100 percent of teachers involved in the program have observed significant improvements in students' writing and social-emotional growth, while nearly all the students' express pride in their writing and expanded vocabulary skills.

Reflecting on your school days, did you participate in any artistic programs? Do you feel that it impacted you in any way? Wouldn't you agree that arts education is essential for a child's development?

I appreciate your understanding of the importance of such programs.
