Support local theatre and arts
Keeping our bold, intimate, and engaging theater running is a challenge, even when our 99-seat house is often filled to capacity. A gap always exists between the cost of producing excellent theater and the income we earn at the box office. To fill this gap, we count on support from generous contributors like you.
Joining us with a gift to our Annual Fund assures that we can continue to bring you Savannah Rep’s immersive brand of theater. All gifts to the Savannah Repertory Theatre (a not-for-profit 501(c)3 corporation) are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
