Last year, when the Earnest Holley Memorial Theater was flooded, they
suffered devastating losses and had to shut down to make the necessary
renovations. Once the theater reopened, they began to raise money with
ticket sales but were still in desperate need of costumes for their actors.
That’s when Anna Campbell, President and Founder of Women Business
Owners (WBO), stepped in and used her networking skills to enlist the
help of a local neighborhood business owner, Tina Campbell (no
relation), owner of Designer Consignor.
To aid the theater’s costume department, Tina graciously donated
clothing from her store, which will be used as the costuming needed for
upcoming performances. Designer Consignor, located at 2614 Chestnut
Ridge Dr, Kingwood, Texas (behind Steinmart), is an upscale consignment
boutique that is affordable and very friendly. Designer Consignor has
been assisting their community by donating clothing for other
businesses, as well. Store hours are Monday through Saturday 10 am-6pm.
Phone number 281-359-8002.
“I am very grateful to Anna and WBO for connecting me with the Earnest
Holley Memorial Theater, giving me the opportunity to assist them in
their time of need” Tina said.
The incredible Earnest Holley Memorial Theater started in June of 2001,
run out of a two-car garage by two brothers and a sister-in-law with a
lot of determination and a dream. The theater, now owned by Sonny and
Suzette Holley, located at 326 Fellows Road, Houston, Texas, is now a
reality with 1360 sq ft. that seats 55.
*The mission of The Earnest Holley Memorial Theater is to provide an
intimate theater where local actors can perform on live stage. Their
goal is to help and support these actors and to provide a theater that
their community will be proud of. The theater is a place where the
actors may live out their passions for stage presentations. They work
extremely hard to provide theater productions that will remain with you
long after you have left the theater. *
