Introducing Dinner & a Show – A Great New Way to Advertise your Business with SCP!

Southgate Community Players is proud to introduce the “Dinner” & a Show” campaign to local businesses in out 2024-25 season. Since 1957, SCP has strived to present the best in performance arts to our community, and has proudly partnered with many local businesses who also share that mission. Dinner & a Show is a new advertising initiative that gets your business in front of our patrons.

Who Will See Your Ads?

• The SCP Corner Playhouse seats 88 patrons; cast and crew can add up to approximately 30 additional people. For a single sold out performance, this means that up to 120 people will see in-theatre and in-program advertising. Each of our 4 shows remaining this season will have 4-6 performances; that could mean over 550 potential unique viewers that could become customers. Programs are also often kept as souvenirs and passed to friends and family members.
• SCP’s Facebook page is followed by nearly 900 people, with 400 more following on Instagram. We are new to TikTok, but our following is growing and we have plans to expand our TikTok footprint throughout the coming season. Posts are often shared multiple times by cast and crew members of current shows, as well as a number of local theatre enthusiasts.
• Year to date our website www.scponstage.com has had nearly 9,000 unique visitors.

We also recommend allowing some sort of in-business advertising at your business for SCP, via a posted flyer or other method to be discussed.
