Why It's Wild

A fundy is a fundraising and/or publicity party to raise money for StuCo shows. People are asked to donate a small sum of money, usually five dollars, at the door to attend. These parties typically occur one or two weekends before the show opens and are held at an apartment of one of the cast or business team members.
