Answer the Call – Theater For All!

AfterWork Theater believes in this fundamental truth: When a person experiences live theater, it sparks something new and exciting. We have witnessed that spark manifest in a number of ways:

• Building lifelong, meaningful relationships
• Finding a new skill or talent or feelings of pride within themselves
• Widening their community to include folx they might never have met otherwise
• Generating empathy for other lived experiences
• Bringing that spark into their communities outside of AWT, allowing it to bloom in others

We work every day to remove barriers that might prevent someone from taking part in this experience with this very special community. And the one barrier we need your help with is the financial one.

A gift of any amount will help the work we are doing. If you are interested in donating an amount that is comparable to the tuition for a specific program type, here are the relevant amounts:

• $695 – A Mainstage Musical
• $585 – A Mainstage Play
• $485 – A Sing Out or Dance Out
• $350-395 – An 8-week class
• $95 – A one-day specialty workshop
• $30 – One drop-in dance class

We are using a new system that does not take a credit card processing fee, so 100% of your donation supports AWT! You will have the option to include a tip during checkout to help fund Zeffy and keep it free for non-profits. A tip will be included by default, and you have the option to change it to any amount (including $0) before you complete your checkout.

If you have any trouble using the form below, we also accept donations via check and zelle!

Would you like to support us another way? There are so many other ways to offer your time, talent or treasures!

• Purchase something off our wishlist! These are items that will be used for an upcoming show, either backstage or perhaps on stage as a prop or set piece!
• Add a note in our Playbill! You can shout-out a specific person, send a general message to the whole cast and crew, or generally offer support to AWT. This a small but extremely meaningful way to donate and potentially make someone’s day!
• Volunteer! We are always looking for folx looking to make a direct impact on our shows and operations. You can express interest in ushering, taking photos, helping out backstage and more!
