does anyone know how I can get involved in helping with publicity for when the show comes? I'd love to do all I can to get the word out!

Coordinate a group ticket purchase: Convince all your friends to buy tickets through you at the discounted group rate. A group discount usually requires only 10-20 tickets. It as to be done well in advance; start looking into this now. Some people who would not bother to go will go if they can get a discount and your personal enthusiasm wins them over. When buying for a group, usually, the box office will set aside a block of tickets and you have a few weeks in which to finalize the number and pay, so you don't have to pay until everyone has paid you. Do this for the first show in Ottawa so that everyone you take has time to go tell others about how great the show is. That's how you create your own buzz!

Nice article. I know ticket sales are really good for the whole run, but a little more publicity here and there never hurts!
