A MASSIVE KICKSTARTER SUPPORTER THANK YOU!

The Most Fun Funeral

view project

The Most Fun Funeral has received FULL FUNDING (and then some) from generous supporters at Kickstarter.com.
Anne Brashier, the writer and performer of The Most Fun Funeral, decided to use Kickstarter.com once she joined forces with Skylight, an organization which offers grief support services to kids and families.
Before premiering The Most Fun Funeral in the New Zealand Fringe Festival, Brashier wanted to reach out to the grief support community in New Zealand. “Death is such a massive and sensitive subject, that it seemed wrong to go into a new community without touching base with people who might be most affected by my show. I wanted staff of these agencies and people who were in grief counseling to feel like the show was made with them in mind. While the show is not targeted to those affected by loss, it might be a great engagement point for dialogue about loss and grief.”
After meeting with representatives from Mary Potter Hospice, National Association for Loss and Grief (NZ) Inc., and a few others, Brashier felt that Skylight was the right fit for her show.
With the overwhelming support from Brashier’s Kickstarter backers, The Most Fun Funeral will be able to donate proceeds from the show back to Skylight!
