Interdimensional Performers an Union of Performing Actors ( IPUPA )
Spoken I P an U P Aye
Origins
This illustrious Union was formed in the Theater District of Seglock by a group of concerned Personalities based in Tristram that the refugees of the various Dragon attacks were struggling to barely survive. While just surviving is fine for some, the people needed a chance to dream, to be inspired to strive for more, to be reminded that there was a better time and that the future could hold better times again. There are a plethora of other organizations that look after some of the basic needs of the populous. The IPUPA seek to nurture the spirit and the soul of the displaced and weary. Many of the Player Characters of Bardic bent are current members with a growing list of NPC Bards and performers of all classes swelling it's ranks.
Mission Statement
' Bringing Hope and Light into a Darkened World '
The purpose of the Interdimensional Performers an Union of Performing Actors ( IPUPA ) is to Provide fun and entertainment to the community in a theatrical venue; Express artistic, civic and educational abilities and interests in our community; Showcase local talent; and Bring a relief from the stresses of war and refugeeism in our community. We seek to bring joy and wonder to the whole of Seglock and beyond by nurturing the mind as well as the body.
To accomplish our mission, there are two tiers of membership in the PUPA:
Performing artists - who are any members skilled in any form of artistic endeavor from painting to musical performance. These members range in ability and experience from Headliner to Understudy to Extra, but they have some innate artistic ability.
Patrons of the Arts - These members may not have the innate artistic ability of the performing artist, but they are those who would like to support the mission in the 'back stage' roles. They may give financial support, moral support, or any other support for the actual running of the daily activities. The Patrons make up the Academy of Many Player Artists and Singers (AMPAS) who vote on the best artists in an annual show at and give out the Academy Award of Merit, a statue in the form of a Golden Knight called Oscar.

Habitat for Allmanity. Those who work or can at least labor are encouraged to assist in the construction of dwellings for the displaced populations that are built on lands donated to the IPUPA or brought with the proceeds from the IPUPA's treasury. These dwellings are then given to those in need of shelter for a very modest rent, those rents go towards funding further IPUPA projects.
