Why give to Florida Stage?

Theatre is such an integral part of the human experience. Think about it – what is theatre? It’s storytelling. And storytelling is how we relay our experiences from one person to another, one generation to the next.

Since 1987, Florida Stage has been bringing storytelling of the highest caliber to South Florida audiences. Through witty, revealing, and awe-inspiring performances, our audience members become more enlightened and aware of the world in which we live. This makes for more responsible, compassionate, and emotionally empowered individuals.

Storytelling takes support.

From paper clips to props, copy paper to costumes – it takes a group to tell the story. Won’t you join us in keeping the stories alive? Your donation today will ensure that Florida Stage theatre-goers will continue to be moved, inspired, and changed by new, ground-breaking American theatre.

Do you ever wonder where your gift goes when you make a donation to Florida Stage? Well, let us take a moment to show you how your gift ends up on our stage.

Not only does your donation help with Florida Stage's mainstage productions, but it also supports its world-renowned education programming.

Florida Stage is committed to providing area students with the chance to be a part of innovative, empowering theatre experiences. From attending special student matinees to honing their writing skills, students in Palm Beach County can depend on Florida Stage to provide them with the arts opportunities that recent state and federal budget cuts have taken from the schools. We need to keep our young people exposed to the power of theatre so that generations to come will carry the stories of today into tomorrow.
