Do you value what we do?

It is a major priority for us to keep our ticket prices low, so as not to exclude any community members. This means that, like most theaters, we cannot rely on ticket sales alone to fund our productions. To date, we have had much success in attracting grants for the Theater, however, our major benefactor has recently discontinued funding for the arts. This means that we rely more than ever on our community base for support.

November, 2009: Good News!
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus!

The Hamner Theater has recently received an $18,750 challenge gift.
If we match this amount, we will double the amount.

Please consider a tax-deductible donation to the Hamner Theater in this time of gift-giving. Theater is a vital part of any community and we hope when you think 'theater' you think Hamner! Won't you please help us keep live theater alive?

Please, will you consider making a pledge of support to help the Hamner Theater to thrive? All donations are tax-deductible.

A Message from Co-Artistic Directors, Boomie Pedersen & Peter Coy
Dec, 2008
Many thanks to you all for your support over the past four years. As we come to the end of the second year of our three-year challenge grant, we look at what we have accomplished with your help: eleven productions, two playwrights conferences, participation in the Capitol Fringe Festival, commissioned works for Wintergreen Performing Arts, joint productions with Charter Theatre in DC, Mill Mountain Theatre in Roanoke and The Wayne Theater Alliance in Waynesboro, monthly musical cabarets, special events and most recently the ongoing Virginia Playwrights Initiative (VPI).

Our plans for the coming year include Richard III, the inaugural production of the Nelson County Shakespeare Festival; two productions in the spring (which will be announced soon); a revival of The Homecoming, as well as monthly cabarets, community events like Youth Movie Night, Chick Flick Night, our ongoing Improv groups HIT and hit, and more new play development through VPI.

The third year of our challenge grant began on Dec 1st. All donations will be matched by our generous anonymous donor. Where else can you double your money so easily? All donations are tax-deductible.

Please mail your check to the Hamner Theater to P.O. Box 106, Nellysford, VA, 22958.

Update, November, 2009: We have made our match for 2009!
Thanks to all who supported us.
