Savannah's First Equity Theatre

A Special Thank-You To Our Largest Sponsor to Date

To our incredible patrons and the Savannah community,

We have put off making this announcement for as long as possible, but as you know Savannah Repertory Theatre, like all other theatres across the country, has had to suspend our 2019-2020 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We had hoped that things might clear up in time to begin rehearsal, but out of respect for the safety of our cast, crew, and audiences, our much-anticipated production of The Light in the Piazza has been cancelled. It is our hope to bring this beautiful musical production to you some day along with its incredible cast – which included many local favorites and three incredible guest artists. At present, Savannah Rep is exploring all avenues, along side our union partnerships, to see how and when we may safely open our doors so we can once again share great stories and great theatre. We are all hopeful that our personal and artistic lives return to normal very soon.

As you know, it is impossible to cancel performances and suspend operations without creating serious and lasting hardships for Savannah Rep, our staff, and artists. As a small nonprofit arts organization, we rely heavily on your support. Now more than ever, your support is critical to all non-profit arts organizations as we have already experienced significant losses due to the unprecedented impact of COVID-19. Today, we launch the SAVREP COVID-19 GHOST LIGHT RELIEF FUND to invite our entire audience to give back and directly address these challenges. This fund will help us keep up with the costs of our building utilities, rent, and maintenance until we are ready to reopen. These costs run minimum $3,000 a month so any little bit will be greatly appreciated.
