Your Gift Makes Theatre Possible!

Reston Community Players is a community-driven nonprofit that thrives on the passion and generosity of theatre lovers like you. While ticket sales generate 71% of our operating budget, charitable donations help bridge the remaining funding gap and provide essential support for the people, programs, and productions that make community theatre possible.

Your generosity directly supports:

  • Stage Productions: Costumes, props, set materials, lighting, sound equipment, and other production essentials.

  • Youth Education: Workshops and hands-on learning opportunities that introduce young people to the performing arts.

  • Training & Mentorship: Technical apprenticeships and practical experience for students, emerging artists, and backstage volunteers.

  • Accessible Theatre: Complimentary tickets to individuals and families who might otherwise be unable to attend.

  • Diversity & Inclusion: Inclusive casting, welcome new artistic voices, and create opportunities for artists from diverse backgrounds.

  • Community Partnerships: Collaborations with local schools and organizations to expand access to theatre and arts education.

  • Artistic Innovation: Ambitious productions, explore new works, and take creative risks.

  • Volunteer Support: Equip the actors, directors, designers, and crew members who generously contribute their time and talents.

Every gift, regardless of size, helps bring the magic of live theatre to our community—onstage, backstage, and beyond! Together, we can ensure that vibrant, accessible, and inclusive community theatre continues to thrive in Reston for generations to come.
