Rochester Repertory Theatre

Light Up 7th Street!

This year, the funds we raise will go towards a brand new light-up sign for the front of our building. This final step in our exterior facelift will help set us apart in the busy area in which we operate. We are always responsible with your donations and take pride in making these projects a reality. So rest assured your gift will have a direct impact on the Rep. 

Rochester Needs the Rep

We know that Rochester is better off because the Rep is here. You'll see shows you won't see anywhere else in town. Modern musicals, classic favorites and boundary-pushing plays are all part of who we are. Our intimate space provides a unique experience for both actor and audience that cannot be replicated. By presenting programming that will challenge and delight actor, audience member and technician alike, we know our place in Rochester's theatre scene is now more important than ever. 

Celebrating 41 Years

Our 40th Anniversary Season was an incredible feat of dedication and passion. We were able to produce a full season that showcased the talents of over 200 volunteers, artists and staff. Thanks in no small part to donors like you, we were able to celebrate many victories from last season. Here are some of the highlights: 

1. Sold-out shows and long lines were a common sight last season, signaling the return (and surpassing!) of pre-pandemic attendance levels 
2. HVAC is now installed and fully functional in all areas of the building 
3. Last year's Give to the Max funded the construction of our brand new stage, now complete and in use! 
4. Customizable LED lights now wrap around the front of our building, catching the eyes of passerby 

Of course, none of this would be possible without you. The outpouring of donations we received last year played a vital role in our success last season. From all us here at the Rep, we say "THANK YOU!" Now we are full steam ahead! 

We Can't Do it Without YOU! 

The Rep's 40 Seasons have been made possible by the generous contributions of our volunteers, patrons, artists and sponsors. As we launch our 41st Season our mission of bringing you intimate theatre thrives. Join us, won’t you? In addition to the project mentioned above, your donations are used to:

1. Maintain our facility - performance space, public areas, rehearsal rooms and workshops
2. Produce our plays - royalties, printing expenses, advertising, sets, costumes and props
