Thank you!
Reflecting on another unforgettable year at PURE Theatre, I am grateful and proud for what we have accomplished together. Our theatre has always been a place for bold stories, brave voices, and a commitment to the truth that binds us all.
And none of this would be possible without you.
PURE Theatre isn’t just a stage; it’s a home for ideas, for connection, for conversations that matter. It’s where we, as a community, gather to experience stories that challenge, inspire, and celebrate our shared humanity. From acclaimed productions such as The Lehman Trilogy to the NEA-funded tour of Septima to an unparalleled education and community outreach program, this past year has shown me time and again that PURE is truly a space for everyone.
As we look to the year ahead, I’m asking for your support in continuing this work. Your generosity enables us to bring powerful theatre to life, support the artistry of our talent, and keep PURE Theatre accessible to all who wish to be part of our story.
A gift of any size has a direct impact. It helps us:
● Expand our education program to reach even more students by bringing theatre into their lives and sparking creativity, confidence, and empathy.
● Produce work of the highest caliber—every dollar we receive helps elevate our productions’
quality, depth, and range.
● Ensure accessibility through affordable ticket prices so no one is excluded from the PURE
Theatre experience.
By giving, you are helping us build a community grounded in understanding, creativity, and empathy. We wouldn’t be PURE Theatre without supporters like you who truly believe in storytelling’s power to open minds and hearts.
Thank you for making a year-end gift to PURE, and I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together in the coming year.
With all my gratitude and best wishes,
Sharon Graci
