General Donations

$
3% Cover the Fee

Proceeds donated here will go towards offsetting workshop and training tuition and fees. We are a 501c3, so all donations are tax-deductible.

We greatly appreciate and gratefully accept general donations, as well as in-kind donations. All donations help us in our mission to:

Make Shakespeare Truly Accessible

Free admission ensures that economic status will never determine who can experience live professional theater in our region.

By presenting Shakespeare in an approachable, welcoming environment, we are breaking down the perception that classical theater is only for certain people, fostering a more inclusive and confident arts audience.

We greatly appreciate your support and our theater company could not exist without this kind of financial help from our patrons. 

For your tax reporting purposes, MidCoast Shakespeare Studio is a nonprofit, 501c3 organization.  Our Federal ID is: 99-4761855. 

Cliff Dike Memorial Fund

Our dear friend and troupe member, Cliff Dike, has passed away.

Cliff believed fervently that theater, particularly Shakespeare, should be accessible to everyone. As such, all monies donated to the Cliff Dike Memorial Fund will be used to offset costs for applicants to our workshop and training programs.

He was a man, take him for all in all,

I shall not look upon his like again."

- Hamlet
