Celebrating and Sustaining Utah’s Premier Professional Theatre Company in Residence at the University of Utah
Help us raise $1.76 million this season in private funding (individuals, corporations, and foundations) to unlock a transformational $1.2 million gift from an Anonymous Donor. Together, we can ensure PTC’s productions, education programs, community access, and organizational sustainability for years to come.
Why It Matters
Theatre is more than entertainment—it is a reflection of who we are, and who we aspire to be. On stage, we see ourselves, our challenges, and our dreams. In the audience, we find community, conversation, and connection.
The Campaign
With Forward: Fund the Future Legacy of PTC, we are embarking on a bold initiative to:
- Raise $1.76 million this season through community support.
- Unlock an additional $1.2 million already pledged to Pioneer Theatre Company.
- Fuel artistic excellence, expand education and access, and strengthen the foundation of Utah’s premier professional theatre.
Every gift—whether $50, $500, or $50,000—brings us closer to unlocking this transformational opportunity.
Your Impact
When you give, you are not only sustaining a season of powerful performances, but also:
- Productions — bringing world-class theatre to Salt Lake City.
- Education — inspiring thousands of students through matinees and campus programs.
- Community Access — expanding initiatives like Curtain Call to welcome all audiences.
- Sustainability — ensuring PTC thrives for the next generation.
Join Us
This is your chance to shape what comes next and to celebrate the legacy of Utah’s premier professional theatre while ensuring its bright future.
Your gift today moves us FORWARD.
