Does anyone know if the header is the actual word: “Play,” or if they mean the title of the play? I’ve never really heard of a company asking for the header to be just: “play” before, so I am a little confused.
We’ll have a look into this and get back to you, Cam!
Word from the organisers is that the word ‘play’ needs to be the header of the email!
