SUPPORT OUR

ANNUAL FUND

Producing a full summer season of professional theater is costly. Ticket sales cover only about 60% of our annual operating expenses. The balance comes from the contributions of our patrons and friends – and it is those contributions that enable us to produce extraordinary work. Please consider a gift in support of the music, laughter and fantastic performances that you see on our stage summer after summer.

WHAT DOES YOUR GIFT DO?

Every gift makes a difference. Your support will help to cover a huge range of
expenses associated with our 2024/2025 season, including:​

$25: 15,000 heavy-duty steel staples for our staple guns. The scenic and props departments go through tens of thousands of industrial staples in a season.

$80: A single body microphone (called a lavalier), worn on an actor’s body as part of the theater’s sound system. We typically replace at least 10 of them each summer.

$150: A season’s worth of hot glue for the props department

$500: Our 2024 paints budget for Little Shop of Horrors.

$750: A summer’s worth of first aid supplies for backstage, housing, rehearsal room, and front-of-house first aid kits

$1,800: New LED lights (per instrument), to replace our aging fixtures and help the Barn Playhouse go green.

$5,000: A typical week’s worth of food to feed a company of 75+

$33,000: Royalties for Jersey Boys
