Why Donate to Uptown Players
Uptown Players depends on donations from our friends, family, and audiences to create our distinctive theater productions. Ticket sales alone can't pay for the work we do. Even with our secret recipe of thrift, ingenuity, and dependable volunteer labor, box office income only pays for half to three-quarters of what you see on stage.
Uptown Players is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization and gratefully accepts individual, corporate, foundation and government contributions. We commit to keeping our ticket prices low. Tickets sales cover only a portion of our annual expenses. Contributions make up the difference. Your tax-deductible gift truly makes a difference!
