SPONSORS DONATE AT A VARIETY OF LEVELS. CRITICAL SUPPORT HELPS COVER EXPENSES FOR OUR LIVE THEATRE PRODUCTIONS & OTHER ARTS PROGRAMMING.

Did you know only a small portion of theatre expenses are covered by Box Office admissions and that that each show carries a royalty license for permission to perform the material? This cost can range from $1700 - $3000…just for access to the scripts and music.

By the time you add costumes and build a set and pay musicians and designers, the cost rises to nearly $5000 per show. OUR THEATRE SPONSORS ARE TRUE HEROES!
