77 Years of Entertainment
Written By: Mary Jane McCall | Issue: 2015/03 - March
One reason Highlanders and visitors alike appreciate life in Highlands is the multi-faceted arts scene.
Highlands Playhouse stands out as the go-to place for theater and movies. Amazingly, the Playhouse has been bringing live theater to Highlands for 77 years.
Imagine that for a moment…FDR was president of the United States when a group of Highlands residents banded together to form the Playhouse. Recent years have seen the Playhouse expand into a yearround movie theater bringing first run movies, and on occasion, a great classic to town.
Through the years the vision of those founders has been embraced by old and young, residents and visitors.
Thanks to the generosity of those that dig a little deeper and give a little more, the Playhouse has grown into a venue that reaches far beyond the boundaries of our town. Those loyal patrons who buy the tickets and enjoy the shows are an important part of the success the Playhouse has enjoyed, but individual and corporate sponsors that go above and beyond make much of what happens here possible.
There are many ways to contribute to the Playhouse. Corporate sponsors’ donations are used to underwrite general operation expenses and are critical to keeping the Playhouse going. Corporate sponsors receive logo placement in all printed material, on the Playhouse website and in all advertising. Production sponsorships are also available which allow businesses to receive great brand exposure by receiving recognition on the title page of the program, in the newsletter and on the Playhouse website.
Individual gifts are welcomed at any level from the smallest to the largest. Each level offers recognition on the Playhouse website and listing in all season programs. As levels of sponsorship increase the perks also increase. An individual sponsorship is a great way to support the Playhouse and enjoy the recognition and benefits that sponsorships bring.
The next time you’re enjoying a play or movie at the Playhouse, think about all it takes to make it possible and give if you can. For more information please contact Managing Director Tammy Hernandez at (828) 526-2695 or [email protected].
