THEATRE CAN SAVE THE WORLD
A bit
dramatic? Hey, we can’t help it – we’re theatre
people. But think about it: even the smallest energy spent by us on the stage
sends energetic ripples into the world, changing us, our audience, our
community, our world, our universe. Theatre truly has the power to save the
world, and now you can help us fight the good fight!
We are Working Class Theatre, a professional-level not-for-profit
theatre company in Taos, New Mexico. Working Class Theatre is committed to
keeping the art of theatre alive by producing provocative and socially relevant
theatre, creating new theatrical works, developing emotionally authentic
ensemble acting, and fostering a nurturing environment where theatre artists at
any stage in their development may train and assist in the production of
professional theatre.
And in all of this, Parks Playhouse – our workspace, our
home, our stage – has always had a starring role. We’re reaching out to ask for
your support in keeping the doors of the Playhouse open as we head into our
2016 season.
In the upcoming years, we plan to expand the minds of
theatre goers and players with imaginative new interpretations of our changing
world, dedicated and professional staging of the classics, and emotional and
evocative workshops and classes. Your donation to this campaign will give us
the boost we need to kick off this new revolution of creativity!

THE
PLAY(HOUSE)’S THE THING
Parks
Playhouse, an intimate black box theater that seats fifty-six, is special to
everyone who has performed there or who has been in the audience at any of its well-loved
productions. Some were lucky enough to have known the man for whom it is named.
Some know it as a sacred first audition or rehearsal space. Many have begun a
lifelong love of theatre after attending a first performance there. To other
local theater groups, touring productions, musicians, poets and speakers the
Playhouse, has been a special temporary home.
The only
venue of its size and type in northern New Mexico, the Playhouse plays an
essential role for the performing arts community here. After some recent
financial struggles, we’re asking for help from our community in keeping the
doors of the Parks Playhouse open. Your donation will help launch a renewed and
revitalized Playhouse, as Working Class Theatre redoubles our commitment to
bringing high-quality, socially-relevant theatre to Taos and its visitors.
A
WORKING CLASS HERO IS SOMETHING TO BE…
And it’s so
easy to help Parks Playhouse continue as a venue for professional performances
and workshops for community members of all ages, and as an affordable rental
resource for visiting and local speakers, performers, and acting troupes.
Check out
the many different levels of financial support, choose one and click on it.
That’s it! We’ll supply the perks – and the works – in our mission to
enlighten! Who knew it was this simple to help save the world?
Be a
Working Class Hero. Support Parks Playhouse
Sincerely,
All of us
at Working Class Theatre.
