SUPPORT YOUR COMMUNITY THEATRE

There are many ways to support your community theatre: attending productions, volunteering, donating props, set items, costumes, supplies (paint, lumber, etc.), and, of course, donating money.

Many people do not know that ticket sales account for less than 35-40% of our revenue. We depend on our donors for our quality productions.

You can be sure that an investment in your community theatre is an investment in success. The Community Theatre is a 501(c)(3), so your donations are tax deductible.

ONGOING SUPPORT

The Fire Hall Theatre is a bustling place, filled with the laughter of children and adults.  We produce 6 mainstage shows a year, and often throw in a couple more for good measure.  Each month we host theatre workshops for elementary school children, and we are the home to Shakespeare at the Fire Hall, as well as the 2nd Act. At this point, our programming is only limited by our space.  We are looking at renting an additional rehearsal/workshop space, and your donations will make this possible! 

How you can help: 
Patron Donations -  Your name will be printed in each of our mainstage programs as our way of saying "Thank You" for your extra support!

Patron and Project Donations are occasionally asked for, with the donation going to a specific project such as travel to a regional, national or international festival or for new seating, or most recently, the renovation of our lobby. General Patron Donations can be specified for:

• Operating Expenses

• The 2nd Act - Our senior musiclal theatre group
• Specifically Underwrite a Production (amount varies)
