For over 27 years Actors Theatre has been serving our community by creating the Best Contemporary Theatre in the Valley. By supporting our Annual Fund Campaign you are supporting more Opening Nights. None of our work would be possible without our donors and sponsors. Our Annual Fund generates more than half our budget, providing resources to create the best experience for our audiences. In short, your support ensures our ability to defy convention in everything we do.

While we won’t hesitate to challenge our audiences – and ourselves – with new writers and confrontational new plays, we leave little else up to chance. Each play matches strong directors with creative designers in a state-of-the-art facility to entertain, engage, and even provoke sophisticated audiences with a cultivated taste for exciting new work.

Last year we asked the community to ensure the future of Actors Theatre. And you did. Individuals like you. Due to the ongoing economic uncertainty and the great need in our community, the financial support of many corporations, foundations and other institutions has been re-directed towards social services. And we understand that. But we need your help to ensure the arts survive until our economy recovers. Actors Theatre is Resilient. And the work we put on stage is Relevant to our lives today.

Every dollar you give directly supports our artistic programming. We couldn't do it without you. And that's the truth. You may have given as recently as last spring. But our new season began this fall. We’re already well into another year of our unique brand of progressive, thought-provoking theatre. That means we’re depending on your gift. Not next month or next year, but right now!

A small monthly donation may make more sense for your household budget. Monthly giving of $10-$20 or even $100 - $200 makes a difference. Imagine hundreds of patrons making monthly gifts. Don’t think your donation will not make a difference. It will. When combined with hundreds of other donors it creates a pathway to our future.

Actors Theatre does not apologize for being in Arizona. We like it here. It is our home. And we are working to make it a better place for us, our children, and for all the people who move here year after year. Arts and culture can serve as an antidote to the projected image of Arizona across the country.

Please don’t delay. It only takes a minute to make your contribution, and giving feels great.

Your support will make a difference for Actors Theatre. Why? Because we are a small non-profit company and every donor is important. Please—don’t wait for someone else to take up this responsibility. We’re counting on you. Give any amount...but please give. It’s easy — simply click here (where you can pledge monthly, as well) – or grab a pen, fill out this contribution form, and mail it in.

Thank you!
