*We could hand out coupons for free Mickaboo bird classes!*

That is a BRILLIANT idea.  I think we should have business cards that double as coupons for free Mickaboo classes!

If we are there purely to dispense information
about caring for exotic birds to a ready-made
audience, as opposed to protesting the film or the
practice of capturing wild birds, I don't think we
should be shut out.

Nights to swoop in on the pre-treated prey)

The possibility of doing something like this
likely would depend both on our message and where
the theater was situated. Anything that smacks of
an informational picket (which a critique of the
movie might imply) won't be well received or
tolerated. Moreover, if the theater is in a
shopping center (mall), that is legally private
property, not a public street, and they can deny
access to anyone; there is no freedom of speech
guaranteed there.

It is possible to set up tables at individual
theaters by contacting theater managers. I know
one corporation asked their sales people to sell
product at movie theaters when a movie with links
to their product came out. It would have to be
educational in order to be a positive addition to
the movie-goers experience.  

 

It takes some time to set up but it looks like we
have prep time.  We need
