About the Fundraiser
It's no secret that COVID-19 has taken a toll on the area businesses, workforce, and non-profits. During the best of times, Stageworks operates on a very limited budget. And now, during these worst of times, our entire business model is on the brink of collapse. Without income, we have no way to pay our employees or our rent. This virtual event will provide an opportunity to make any size donation.
The positive news is that the Board of Directors has built a solid plan to come out of this crisis by the end of 2021. It is a tiered plan that will allow us to come back safely and slowly, since the year ahead is going to look much different than those of the past.
Over the past 15 years, we've made it through economic downturns, hurricanes, and floods. Making it through this calamity will require more of a team effort. We are calling on our theatre-loving community and local neighborhoods to unite with us to secure the vitality of this beacon of expression, entertainment, and education.
Please join us on June 6, 2020 for this star-studded gathering of hope and unity. Our artists are lining up to perform for you!

Note: Stageworks Theatre employs a small staff of paid employees and commissioned artists, but most are currently furloughed. Our Board of Directors are solely volunteers, drawing no income from the theatre. In fact, all donate a significant amount of time and money to the theatre.
Stageworks Theatre qualifies for various governmental programs designed to supplement operational expenses due to this crisis. Although we applied on the first day that applications were accepted for several short-term loans and grants, we were informed that funds are no longer available, with no timeline given regarding possibility of upcoming awards.
