How You Can Help The Ellen Theatre
The upkeep and day-to-day running of The Ellen is expensive. Annually, taxes, insurance, utilities and mortgage total just over $89,000. This does not take into consideration staffing or production costs for each and every show or concert. And ticket sales cover about 40% of all of our expenses. We could raise ticket prices, but that would defeat the purpose of being "A Community Art Space that is Accessible and Affordable to the Entire Community."In the world of theatre, patrons and those who donate funds are called Angels. Here is a chance for you to earn your wings and exorcise some of our bedeviling costs. Become an Angel and enjoy the divine satisfaction of helping this shining jewel in the downtown crown fulfill an important role in the cultural community. Plus, everybody needs their halo polished up now and then.
