Theatre is for everyone!

We value accessibility, and want to share theatre with the entire community.

PAY WHAT YOU CAN

Since 1991, Alleyway has offered PWYC performances for every production. We carry on that tradition as our commitment to making theatre available for everyone.

Beginning in 2022, the first week of performances are Pay What You Can Previews, for public performances prior to Opening Night. A limited number of tickets are available in advance online and others cash at the door.

ARTS ACCESS

Alleyway partners with Arts Services, Inc. to provide free tickets throughout the season as part of the Arts Access program. In the 2022/23 season, Arts Access tickets are only available for Preview Performances.

PROJECT SPIRIT

Area elementary and middle school students are welcomed to special performances of A CHRISTMAS CAROL each season through our PROJECT SPIRIT initiative. These students receive special workshops and discussions from our staff and teaching artists before the show, immersing them in the world of theatre at a young age. If you're a teacher or school administrator and would like more information, reach out at hello@alleyway.com.
