 We want our shows and workshops to be accessible.
Most people don't realize all the costs that go into producing and presenting theatrical works: keeping the toilets clean, the lights on, heat (a/c) on, marketing/promotion, insurance, taxes, legal fees, storage, postage, office supplies, fundraising expenses, printing programs, and on and on. Most venues can easily show that the cost of a ticket does not pay for the show. Fundraising is essential. Seeing theatre in a theatre is a wonderful experience. Having the lighting and sound "just so" to place the performance in the best light possible for the audience. It's all about you -- the audience member, the theatre-goer! Our goal is to keep our tickets at an affordable rate -- especially for our family series -- while crafting a full, theatrical experience for our audience.
