Our Annual Appeal
December 15, 2024
Dear Friends, Old and New,
As the new year approaches, we, at The Actors Studio of Newburyport, have much to celebrate and look forward to. With all the excitement of our upcoming season of plays, classes, Story Slams, readings and more, I invite you to support this year’s Annual Appeal. Together we can make more magic happen!
No contribution is too small or too generous, every penny of donor support is deeply appreciated and put to good use to keep our unique Black Box Theater alive and thriving. Please help us continue to fulfil our mission, providing an intimate theatre experience for our audiences and a safe and stimulating environment for our artists to test themselves and grow.
We have new programs scheduled including Improvisation Classes with Ethan Jule and a stand-up Comedy program in collaboration with Maxwell Schultz. February welcomes Velocity Theater, as a team of artists create a play in a day for Valentines. We will celebrate Women’s HerStory Month in March with performances by Sherryl Faye as The Queen and a production of Daughters of The Appalachians, six women with powerful stories to tell. The New Year promises an exciting and varied programming schedule.

Annual Appeal donations can be made online on our donations page or by check at 1Merrill Street #3, Salisbury MA 01952.
Sincerely,
Marc Clopton, Executive Director
