Sponsorships


Sponsorships are a key means for maintaining and building the Theatre’s Capacity – defraying the costs of producing and maintaining affordable prices; raising the level of operation; extending the sphere of influence; and, making plans for expansion.

The Detroit Repertory Theatre has three sponsorship categories, Season, Production and Event Sponsorships.

Season Sponsorships
Season sponsors underwrite and lend their name to an entire season of plays. Due recognition is given in all seasonal promotion, advertising, releases. Public Service Announcements, and Internet Communications, including recognition on the Detroit Repertory Theatre website. Season Sponsorships begin at $50,000

Production Sponsorships
Production Sponsors designate funds to specific plays within a season. Sponsors receive credit in all production or event promotion, including programs, advertising, releases, Public Service Announcements, stories and internet communications.

Production sponsorships range from $25,000 or above for Exclusive Sponsorships to as low as $2,500 for Co-Sponsorships.
