Weston Friendly's sound system has become outdated or nonfunctional after years of use in our shows.

In addition, the FCC has reallocated sound frequencies used by the majority of our mics to wireless carriers. This government reallocation and the subsequent ban of the use of wireless mics in this range has forced us to scrap a huge chunk of our sound system.

Currently we are slowly working toward replacing old, nonfunctional or unusable equipment. New mics, receivers, transmitters, support equipment, and sound board are needed. We are looking to fundraise $15,000 this season to aid in the payment for our upgrades.

Here are some of the necessary items that your donation will go toward purchasing:

$180 - wireless mic (6 needed)
$629 - fin antenna (one needed)
$1300 - dual wireless mic system with 2 bodypack transmitters (3 needed)
$5200 - digital sound mixer board (one needed)

Please donate today to improve the sound for all our main stage productions and in our Friendly Kids theater shows. Our ultimate goal is that the audience fully hears the the entire story being told. Your contribution will be gratefully appreciated by us, our performers and our audiences. And they are fully tax deductible as allowed by law.

As the nation's second oldest continuously running community theater organization, the Weston Friendly Society of the Performing Arts has been a key part of Weston's and the greater Boston area's cultural scene for over 130 years. From our cabaret-style main stage performances in our beloved Weston Town Hall to our Friendly Kids musical theater program for 4th & 5th grade Weston school students, Weston Friendly strives to connect and engage all members of our community to explore the richness of live theatrical productions.
