I remember that when we were doing "The Underpants" by Steve Martin back in college we bought a whole crapload (no pun intended) of tighty whities at Walmart, wrote on them in Sharpie "Get into Steve Martin's Underpants this weekend" with the theater group's url, and left them conspicuously laying about the dorm lobbies and dining halls. Ah, the good ol' days!

I have always thought it would be cool to video tape some of the best scenes during a dress rehearsal, compile them into an advertisement for the show, and see if you can work out a deal with your local movie theater to show it during the previews for the week leading up to the show. I have never done this before, and I doubt that the big chain theaters would go for it, but many communities (including my own) still have a privately owned theater around and I bet most would do it in exchange for some advertising in the playbill
