At Pacific Theatre, we’re on a mission to make theatre accessible to everyone. Our belief in the transformative power of the arts drives us to provide opportunities for everyone to experience the magic of live theatre. We invite you to join us in our Fall 2023 Campaign, which aims to remove barriers to live theatre and expand our outreach as a company.
Our Commitment to Inclusivity
The heart of this mission lies in our commitment to inclusivity. We’ve established a community guest program in collaboration with local service organizations like The Kettle Society, The East End Boys Club, More Than a Roof, and others. Every season, we donate tickets to individuals who would not otherwise have the chance to experience theatre. Additionally, we offer over 1000 accessible tickets at just $15 each, ensuring affordability for students, seniors, community members on fixed incomes, working artists, and anyone eager to enjoy our shows.
Introducing “Gift A Seat“
This fall, we’re launching our “Gift A Seat” fundraising campaign to sustain and expand these initiatives. The campaign’s goal is to raise $20,000 to underwrite the cost of complimentary and accessibly-priced tickets, allowing us to reach even more individuals and communities. That said, whether we meet our fundraising goal or not, we’re committed to continue offering low-barrier access to our shows.
But don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what some of our community guests have to say:
- E’lana shares, “I cannot thank you enough for the gift of being able to attend; it makes such a huge difference in my life!”
- Megan expresses her gratitude, “So, thank you again for the chance to be part of this incredible, impactful, and soulfully resonating experience.”
Your Impact
In the 2022-2023 Season, we provided 161 complimentary community guest tickets and an additional 667 accessible $15 tickets. This coming season, will you partner with us to grow these numbers? Your donation will make a real difference in the lives of those we serve. Together, we can bring the joy and inspiration of theatre to all members of our community.
If you’d like to learn more about our Gift A Seat campaign or have any questions, please reach out. If you are ready to donate, you can do so here!
Your support is invaluable, and we’d be honoured to have you join us in this mission! Thank you for considering our request and for your dedication to making the arts accessible to everyone.
