Paul Werner for Actors Theatre of Louisville

WHY ACTORS THEATRE MATTERS TO ME

Hello All, I have been working at Actors Theatre since 1997.  When I started I did not know that I would be here as long as I have been.  I have quite literally worked on hundreds of shows and events...many of those shows became family traditions, world premieres, or even reimagined classics.  On top of that, I have had the pleasure of working with some of the most creative people ever.  It has truly been a blessing experiencing the work in this community surrounded by passionate people who care about what they bring to the world.

I rarely ask people for money but if you can give a little to help us make our goals I would be insanely happy.  Maybe we worked together on a project, maybe you worked with me on a cool production team.  Heck I may have even managed you for bit (dont hold that against me).  You dont have to empty out your bank account!  Just a couple of dollars to show you care about this place or about sharing stories with others.  

JOIN ME

This Give for Good Louisville, I’m asking you to join me in supporting Actors Theatre. Every gift helps keep live theatre thriving in our community and creates more opportunities for people to experience the connection, joy, and belonging that the arts provide.

WHY GIVE TO ACTORS THEATRE?

• Regular participation in cultural events is associated with a 32% lower risk of depression.
• Engaging with the arts just a few times a year is associated with a 14% lower risk of premature death.
• The arts give us a place to gather. Chronic loneliness can have a significant impact on our health — the U.S. Surgeon General compares its effects to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.

THE EVIDENCE IS CLEAR: 

When you invest in the arts you’re creating a healthier, happier Louisville.
