PLEASE DONATE
Theatres all over the nation, including Chautauqua Playhouse have suffered a great loss of income because of  closure during the pandemic.  Now that we are reopened, the attendance has fallen by about 40% since pre-pandemic and you know what has happened to prices for everything. We thank all who have donated  to help keep our theatre afloat, but we are still in need of more income to keep our doors open.  Won't you please consider donating to Chautauqua Playhouse?  Any amount is appreciated and your donation is deductible to the extent of IRS regulations. We have teamed with Paypal in order to make it easier for you to donate online.
