2010 Fundraising Campaign Appeal

The WorkShop Thanks Its Supporters!

Important Message from the Managing Director:

Dear Friends of the WorkShop,

Now is a very exciting time for the WorkShop Theater Company. This August, we begin our seventeenth season of developing new plays and presenting compelling theater on our constantly action-packed stages.

During a time when only 10% of Off-Off-Broadway theater companies have the ability to maintain long-term control of their own spaces, we've just signed a new ten-year lease that will allow our 175-member company to keep its creative two-theater home vital and active in the heart of Manhattan. This is a remarkable victory, and one in which we happily share with all of you, our friends and Supporters.

Right now there is no better time to help us with a tax-deductible donation as I am thrilled to announce that for all donations received between July 1, 2010 and this coming Thanksgiving (November 25, 2010), the WorkShop is the happy recipient of a very generous matching grant opportunity!

Through this matching grant, we will receive $1 for every $3 raised (up to first $30,000 donated) from the direct fundraising efforts of the company and our individual company artists. For instance, if you donate $30, the WorkShop gets an extra $10! This works for any amount you choose to send.

Your tax-deductible donation, along with its matching dollars, will not only keep our creative doors open, it allows us to continue to serve (and innovate with) our artists and audiences.

We love making good theater here, and are so grateful for the opportunity your donation dollars give us to do just that!

As always,

We couldn't do it without you!
