Theaters should only be dark on Mondays.

The effects of the of the pandemic have been staggering to The 5th Avenue Theatre and the hundreds of actors, students, writers, technicians, designers, directors, choreographers, musicians, stage managers, and staff members who rely on us. We had to close our doors, cancel or postpone the rest of our 2019/20 season and scale back our operations to retain only essential functions and core staff. 

Due to this unprecedented disruption we are now facing a $2 million deficit this season and many more months with no ticket sales. Our financial need is greater than ever, and we hope that you will be a defender of the arts in your community by showing your support at this critical time.

If you believe in The 5th stand with us now. Your gift today helps ensure that we are able to overcome this once-in-a-century challenge and makes certain The 5th Avenue Theatre will be here for our community for generations to come, because theaters should only be dark on Mondays.
