As the daylight hours get shorter and shorter in the northern hemisphere, many people are lighting candles, celebrating Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Diwali, or the solstice.

Since Neolithic times, humans have lit fires during the longest nights as sympathetic magic to guarantee the return of the sun and with it, the plants upon which both animals and people depend. 
In the week preceding what was to be the opening of The Orchards, our original adaptation of Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard, our lights literally went out.

Our lighting board, which was not new when it came to us 24 years ago, blew several circuits, destroying expensive LED bulbs and delaying the opening of our show. Some four thousand dollars later, we were back in business, with a shorter run of our unique play. (And a bit of a hit to our fiscal reserve!) 

The truth is that theater at the Russian River Hall, the home of Curtain Call Theatre, has always operated on a shoestring budget supported by generous patrons and dedicated volunteers. 

Part of the magic of community theater is that we can do a lot with a little! 

But after 24 years theater productions in the Russian River Hall, we are in need of some major infrastructure improvements. . As we get ready to launch our 25^th year of live theater, we are setting a fundraising goal of $25,000 for 2025. This modest capital campaign will help us continue to bring innovative, relevant and exciting theater to the Russian River community and Western Sonoma County. Your fully tax-deductible contributions will go to:

• Replace and update our lighting system
• Purchase a new sound board and speakers
• Replace our literally threadbare curtains
• Make repairs to our roof and ceiling fixtures
• Purchase a new computer to run our sound and lighting system

Donate and partner with us to continue the tradition of excellent theater for our community!
