In addition to purchasing tickets you can support the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse by joining our Aladdin Society.
The Aladdin Society is for those who believe in the mission of the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse and who want to be an integral part of its continued success .
Membership is $100 yearly starting July 1, 2011 with a limit of 100 members. There are still a few memberships available so join soon!
The Aladdin Society was established in 2011, shortly after the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse became an independent Non-Profit Organization. The Society was nostalgically named after the Aladdin Theater (the original name of the Playhouse) and comprised of 100 Members.
It was the intention of the founders to establish a social Society that would assist in the following areas for the Playhouse:
Community Awareness
All members will be kept informed monthly of the “good news” from the Playhouse and thus be able to share with others in the community
Fundraising
Each member makes a contribution to the success of the Society Annually. Each will be able to attend quarterly functions, special events, and to be the first to receive the Epicurean Delights Booklet each year.
You can download and print your own Epicurean Delights Booklet and reservation form by clicking here:
Inclusion in the Playhouse Family
The members are those who have been past, current and future leaders of the organization with the intention of keeping those interested individuals active and informed.
Mission Statement of The Aladdin Society
To support the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse each year through positive community awareness securing continued success.
