Call for 'Wonderful' Christmas Decorations - Western Canada Theatre
It's a wonderful time to donate your old, unused Christmas decorations! 

 

CALL FOR DONATIONS: It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play is set in 1949 Kamloops and we need your help to make it look festive and 40s! Your attics, basements, and boxes of old Christmas decorations could be our gold mine. If you have unused or unwanted Christmas decorations, especially those that look similar to decorations used in the 1940s, we'd like to give them a new life on stage.

CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS NEEDED: Explore the list of decorations below to see what we’re looking for, then bring your items to the Pavilion Theatre by Nov 19. We'll take as many or as little as you are able to donate.

   Tree Ornaments: 75 round, shiny, preferably non-breakable tree ornaments approximately the size of a tennis ball or larger. Any colours but not too many blues, purples, or yellows. Additional ornament styles we need are decorative pine cones, nutcrackers, doves, wreaths, and Santas.
  Homemade Paper Decorations: snowmen, trees, snow flakes, balls, ginger bread men, poinsettias, stars, etc. 
  Garland: four  8’ long green tree garlands built around a twisted wire centre to match some we already have (see photo left for reference).

   Christmas Lights: old fashioned incandescent screw in bulb light strings (100' minimum) and spare bulbs. 
   Angel Tree Topper: preferably 15” high with lights or a spot for lights to be installed. This item will be the show stopper of the Christmas tree on set.
