2008 SEASON CONTRIBUTORS TO-DATE

Virginia Premiere Theatre, a not-for-profit 501(c)(3), is funded by private and government support. Ticket sales represent only a small portion of the funding necessary to produce high-quality theatre at reasonable prices. Much of VPT's community outreach and educational programming is offered free of charge. As we continually strive to improve our community and the world around us through the arts, our efforts are only limited by financial restrictions. Won't you join us in our work by making a donation today?
