What do we do with donations?

Cover production costs

It turns out making theater can be pretty expensive. Who knew? Donations go towards covering anything from printing scripts at local libraries, to booking rehearsal spaces, to costume shopping trips at Goodwill, to renting equipment from small businesses. FCR not only tries to keep production costs low, we shop sustainably and ethically whenever possible.

compensate artists

This page features two beautiful works of art by Vermont artists, both of which were made possible by donations. We work with visual artists, actors, designers, crews, stage managers, you name it. And we at FCR believe artists should be compensated for their work. We will pay every other member our our team before we ever write ourselves a paycheck.
