**** since radio spots and print ad runs are expensive The Ridgefield Playhouse would be willing to split the ad costs in 1/3 - we would use 2/3 of the :60 radio spot as well as 2/3 of the print ad size

Typically a radio ad run costs us around $3,0000 per station for a one week run- so it would cost renter $1,000 for one radio station for a one week run.
