When you buy a theatre ticket, the cost of that ticket only covers 50% of the expenses associated with producing the play. Theatres are non-profit organizations which thrive off the generosity of their donors. As a subscription-based community theatre, the North Platte Community Playhouse relies on season/patron memberships, corporate and advertising benefactors, and contributions to sustain this beautiful historic treasure. All contributions help to provide a stage for community actors to share their love of theatre, develop creativity in students of all ages through arts education classes, and preserve our historic theatre on the National Register of Historic Places.
