DONATE

The Garage Theatre is a 501(c)3 charitable organization that is run by an all-volunteer staff. In order to fulfill our mission of providing affordable theatre that is accessible to the entire community, The Garage Theatre relies heavily on support from family, friends, neighbors in the community, and people like you. And beginning in 2023, independent theatres will face new financial hurdles.

In order to produce a show, theatres must apply for their rights & royalties via that script’s publishing company. As of this year, the fees for these rights are due at the time applications are accepted. Historically, The Garage has survived on the profit of a closing show to afford all costs of the incoming one, but are now required to have funds for the entirety of our pronounced season upfront. Having just re-opened within the past year, this feat is proving even more difficult for us and our humble black box.

We ask that if you can, please become a season subscriber (where you’ll be guaranteed a ticket to all shows, drink vouchers & an extra-friend ticket) or make a tax-deductible donation. You can also join us this February 26th from 2-6pm at Utopia Restaurant in downtown Long Beach as we host our annual fundraiser (see the ’Coming Soon’ tab under Productions for more info).

All contributions go directly to operations and production materials. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.
