Discounts for Military Personnel

Being in the military is sometimes a thankless job, and being a member of a military family is often overwhelming. Relocation can be the hardest thing to get used to, and this time of year lots of families are settling down in a new town. AHT is trying to make that change a little more fun. As a special thank you to the folks who protect our country, we have a special coupon offer available on MilitaryAvenue.com for military personnel at Fort Leavenworth and Whiteman Air Force Base. This discount is good for groups of 5 or more at a rate of $12.50 per ticket!

This month, the people at MilitaryAvenue.com chose AHT as their featured Military Reward! Check it out by clicking here.

Hopefully, this opportunity to participate in an arts event will help make the transition to a new place a little easier, or even make for a fun outing before summer comes to a close.

AHT Goes Social

As we tie up loose ends on the new website design and welcome our new Publicist, Morgan, we have begun to take on the craziness that is Social Media. There are so many avenues now to get your name out in front of people, and utilizing all of the social networks that exist is an easy way to bring attention to your product to a variety of different demographics.

Personally, I am a huge fan of getting "insider info". I like knowing all of those special tidbits about a production. There's really something fun about having a little more background information on the show you are going to see. Our goal in the future is to be able to use the many different types of social media to allow our patrons to have that true "Backstage Pass" to know what's happening at AHT.

To begin, we set up a Facebook page where fans can find links to reviews, production photos and videos, special discounts and offers and even discuss productions with each other. Check us out and become a fan at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kansas-City-MO/American-Heartland-Theatre/57284835646

Today we took another step into giving patrons an opportunity to get insider information on our shows and staff. We created a Twitter account - follow us and you'll get short snippets about what's happening right now at AHT. Set up your own Twitter account and let us know - we'd love to follow you, too!
