<p><strong>Director&rsquo;s Cut Wines</strong></p>
<p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>Over the past two years, Olde Towne has added another level of enjoyment for our guests.&nbsp; With each production, we offer special wines, not usually included in our regular wine list.&nbsp; These wines are carefully selected by experts in the wine industry to compliment our menu for each play.&nbsp; Whenever possible, our wine advisors try to relate the wine varieties with the theme of the production as well.&nbsp; Here are the special selections for <em>The Movie Game: </em></p>
<p><em>&nbsp;</em></p>
<p>From California, we feature three wines from famed Hollywood Director Francis Ford Coppola for $16 bottle.</p>
<p><span style="color: #646464;">&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><strong>Bianco</strong></p>
<p>This Pinot Grigio has soft melon aromas with peach, pear and pink grapefruit flavors.</p>
<p>*Enjoy with the Crab-Stuffed Tilipia</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Shiraz</strong></p>
<p>Ripe, lush berry fruit flavors, yet balanced by the spicy finish, this wine is delicious!</p>
<p>*Enjoy with the Pork Chop</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Rosso</strong></p>
<p>A blend of Zinfandel, Cab and Sirah.&nbsp; Rich, juicy flavors of plum, cherries and mocha.</p>
<p>*Enjoy with the Top Sirloin</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Director&rsquo;s Cut wines will also be available for $5/glass and the Mosacto will continue the dessert course.</p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.oldetownetheatre.org/footlight-footnotes/rss-comments-entry-2950996.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>Tax Tips</title><dc:creator>Olde Towne</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 30 Sep 2008 05:17:41 +0000</pubDate><link>http://www.oldetownetheatre.org/footlight-footnotes/2008/9/30/tax-tips.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">279279:2828057:2368854</guid><description><![CDATA[<h3>Count Your Deductions</h3>
<p>Do you itemize on your federal income tax? Contributions to Olde Towne Dinner Theatre's Building Fund are deductible to the full extent allowed by law. Now's a good time to make a contribution. The year is waning and you'll be counting up your deductions before you know it. No matter how much you give, the theatre is grateful for your contribution. When you itemize, the only limit is that your charitable contributions cannot exceed 50 percent (half) of your adjusted gross income.</p>
<h3>Give a Gift; Skip the Taxes</h3>
<p>Did you know that Uncle Sam takes a share when you sell stock? If the value has increased substantially and you&rsquo;ve had the stock for more than a year, you would end up paying capital gains taxes when you sell. We&rsquo;ve got an alternative in mind. Give your stock away. The long-term capital gains tax rate for appreciated stock is around 15 percent on your profit. Sell it yourself, and you&rsquo;ll still have to pay the tax, even if you give the proceeds away. But if you give the stock itself to Olde Towne Dinner Theatre, you can claim a charitable deduction for the full value of the stock at the time of donation and avoid paying capital gains taxes, too.</p>
