Sarasvàti Productions has made the big time! We are pleased to announce that our interactive theatre piece, No Offense…, has been chosen as a candidate for the PEPSI REFRESH PROJECT! Pepsi will be shelling out a whopping $1 million dollars to help support worthwhile community initiatives across the country. The top 10 candidates in each division will receive funding, and we are currently at a very close #46! With your help, we will be able to offer this important theatrical work and valuable resources to youth throughout Manitoba. Help us make a difference by raising awareness and finding solutions to racism. Please take 2 minutes of your time to stop racism. Let’s get Winnipeg on the map with a win!
