Your Donations Build Our Future

In spite of our wonderful history and current success, we struggle each year to make our budget. Our mission is carried out through a variety of programs that do not pay for themselves. We receive no city or county funding. Ticket sales and other earned income provide only 60% of our budgeted expenses, and we must raise an additional 40% of funds through contributions, both corporate and individual, each year. That means we must raise $400,000 annually for the basic needs of the theatre: artistic and technical expertise and leadership, sound fiscal management and accountability, lights, water, electricity, insurance, repairs and maintenance. This ensures that our actors, volunteers, and audiences have a safe, creative place to work and be inspired.

TYA Production: A Winnie the Pooh Christmas Tail

Can you imagine if we didn't receive these funds? We would have to cut 40% of our programming...we might have to cut our children's production program altogether, not to mention our classes for kids and adults. There would be no Les Misèrables, School Edition or Stuart Little for our young people to stretch their artistic muscles, as there would be too many costumes and the royalties would be too expensive. All our mainstage shows might have to be chosen from plays with 2-4 characters, eliminating a classic like Inherit the Wind, and we could never afford to costume shows like Camelot or Hello, Dolly!

Co-Producing Opportunities

You can be a part of shaping the cultural offerings of Topeka and Northeast Kansas through your involvement as a Co-Producer!

Co-Producing a show at Topeka Civic Theatre & Academy is a great way to blend philanthropic dollars with an advertising investment! We invite you to join the "best of the best" Topeka and Northeast Kansas businesses, many of whom have been co-producers for TCTA shows for many years.

Co-producer support allows TCTA to keep our ticket prices at a reasonable level and to have greater "production value" (sets, lights, props, costumes, sound) than we would otherwise be able to afford. Plus, our co-producers have the satisfaction of knowing that they made a wise 'investment' in their community, helping to enrich the cultural offerings for their fellow citizens.
