Annual Campaign

SUPPORT CHARLESTON STAGE'S PROFESSIONAL STAGE PRODUCTIONS AND EXPANDING EDUCATION PROGRAMS BY DONATING TO OUR ANNUAL CAMPAIGN!

Thanks to your support, Charleston Stage has returned from the disruption of the pandemic in time to celebrate our 45th Anniversary Season with a full lineup of 10 productions with 100 performances, reaching close to 50,000 patrons! We also launched CityStage, our new free community engagement program, which reaches hundreds of underserved students in urban and rural communities over five counties. Additionally we have expanded our commitment to education through programming which includes additional classes, workshops and school day performances that reach over 20,000 Lowcountry youth.

Generous support has allowed Charleston Stage to assemble a full and part-time staff of 62 theatre professionals, invest in our West Ashley Theatre Center, and expand our general operating budget to $3.7 million dollars—all to support the fully staged professional productions and enriching educational programs we produce each season.

With the current uncertainty in the economy - inflation and supply chain challenges, costs are rising for Charleston Stage and your help is needed now more than ever. Your support not only makes these enriching programs possible, but will allow us to continue to grow and enhance education programs and professional productions and ensure they are even more accessible to the wider Lowcountry Community.

It is for this reason we ask for your support of Charleston Stage’s 45th Anniversary Annual Campaign.

As we celebrate 45 years of great theatre and enriching education programming, your support today ensures that the future for Charleston Stage and all we serve remains bright. There is no doubt that the best is yet to come.

Sincerely,

Founder and Producing Artistic Director	Artistic Director Designee
