After A Wilde Theatre had a very successful five years in downtown Brighton, Theater Corporation is hoping that you can help support the New Performing Arts Center in Livingston County. Last year the Wilde Theatre had brought in over 4000 people to the theatre downtown Brighton. The theatre goers enjoyed seven (7) main stage performances, two (2) children’ shows, hosted two singers and brought in six (6) Sam Rose comedy nights.
Livingston County thrives on its vibrant community. Now, there is a opportunity to purchase a building and have a permanent home for the theatre!
This dedicated performing arts center will be more than just a stage. It will be a gathering space for residents of all ages to experience the magic of live performances, by continuing to offer Professional Theatre, Children’s Theatre, Comedy and live music shows to name a few. The theatre will continue to nurture talent from all around Southeastern Michigan and enrich the Arts in the community for generations to come.
We Need Your Support:
The down payment to purchase this building is $500,000+ and we have 30 days to raise this amount. This will secure the property and cover all architectural and engineering plans to create the theatre space inside. Your contribution, no matter the size, will be instrumental in making this vision a reality!
Investing in the Arts:
We are seeking generous donors to help us transform a 4,500 sq. ft. building into the NEW home for A Wilde Theatre.
This space will include:
• Parking
• Classroom for teaching children and adult classes
• Room to have our props, costumes and set building supplies in house
• Rental space for parties, events and classes
Possible bonuses for becoming a sizable ($10,000 +) donor:
• Tax Deduction
• Name included on a plague in our lobby area
• Advertising in all show programs for a full year
• 25% off children’s theater production tuition and classes for one year
And yes . . . the Brighton Art Guild will continue to provide art on the walls. We know the new theatre will, once again, be the cornerstone of our community, attracting visitors and boosting local restaurants and businesses.
The Theater Corporation invite you to join in this exciting endeavor. If you are interested in contributing to this amazing endeavor, you can start by emailing your pledge by March 31st. If we receive enough pledges, actual funds will not be due until the end of April.
Feel free to contact our Executive Director for more information about how your donation will make a difference in creating a new theater and supporting the Arts in Livingston County.
Sincerely, Executive Director
Shannon Egenolf
