We're celebrating 25 Years of Theatre in Los Angeles.
Please support the theatre you love. |
It's the Giving Season, and our annual year-end campaign to raise funds to support The New American Theatre.
Usually this time of year, we'd be throwing a party to celebrate our past season and having a benefit to raise funds to support our upcoming one. As we know, however, there is nothing normal about this year. And so, we will be fundraising virtually.
We know that times may be tough but we are asking if you can, to donate to the New American Theatre so that we can bring you more exciting theatre - online and onstage in 2021.
And as a token of our appreciation, we've included a link below to the comedy short The Jack Twidwell Story, our entrant in the TogetherLA Festival. Written by company member Jerry Lambert, starring company members Brendan Brandt, Don Harvey, David Purdham, Jade Sealey, Jeannine Wisnosky Stehlin, and Susan Ziegler. Directed by artistic director Jack Stehlin and Don Harvey.
