Playbill Drive

Help the cast reach their goals!

Putting on high quality productions twice a year takes a lot of people and a lot of funding. In order to bring the show to the stage we need to rent lights and sound equipment, build sets, make costumes, print playbills and so much more.

What does it cost illuminate to produce a show?

You may have wondered just what goes into putting on a production like we do at illuminate? We're glad you asked! Some expenses you might guess, like costumes, but there are others you may not have considered. Select the items above to understand why fundraising is so important.

We ask all cast members to raise around $300 each, depending on show budget, in order to help us reach the goals so we can bring the production to life. Please scroll down to donate and help the cast bring this show to the stage.
