About

Help us fund next year’s season of shows! Every year, Basement Arts produces around 6 full-length productions and many more one-night-only shows in our LateNight Series, all of which are directed, designed, performed, and managed by students. By donating, you will give our members the means to create higher quality shows that can spend more on publicity costs and production costs, including the creation and purchasing of sets, props, costumes, and so on. With your funding, our shows will reach more people and not need to compromise on our members’ visions and desires for the shows because of budget limitations.

All of our shows are also completely free to attend for all audience members, from students to members of our local communities. For the sake of the community, we make our art financially accessible. Of course, that means we do not receive funding from ticket sales — your donation will be invaluable to us, then, so we can continue to improve our shows’ budgets while maintaining our commitment to free theater.
