    A Message for All Troupes from Deborah  – LITF Marketing and Social Media Chair – March 2026

    Help Us Introduce Your Troupe to Our Community!

    Greetings from Liverpool, Nova Scotia! My name is Deborah Raddall, and I look after LITF marketing and social media. My job is to help promote your group and help our audiences get to know you before the festival begins.

    To help us share your story on our Facebook and Instagram pages, please send us the following materials:

     

    1. Candid Photos or Short Clips

    We love to see the “behind-the-scenes” magic! These help our audience see the wonderful artists who will be coming to LITF. You might consider sharing:

    • A moment from your rehearsals

    • A glimpse of your set or costumes

    • Anything else fun you would like to share

    2. A Short Greeting Video

    A simple phone video is perfect—aim for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. In the video, please say hello and tell us what you are most looking forward to at the festival.

    Feel free to follow this simple script:

    • “Hello! We are [troupe name] from [city and country].”

    • “We will be performing [title of your play] at LITF 2026.”

    • “We would like you to know [something about your troupe or your work].”

    • “We are looking forward to [tell us why you are excited about participating in LITF].”
