Become a Patron
Becoming a Playhouse Patron is a brilliant way to support Nottingham Playhouse Trust’s charitable objectives.
As a registered charity (no. 1109342), generosity from our Patrons ensures we can produce work that creates wonder in Nottingham, giving a voice to un-told stories and cultivating life-changing experiences.
Fundraising is essential to our work and this community of like-minded individuals, our closest supporters, contribute income needed to sustain everything from our community projects to our produced work. In thanks for this support, Patrons receive the benefits detailed below.
I hope you consider joining us today. Please feel free to contact Jess, our Development & Sponsorship Manager, anytime if you have questions on 0115 873 6242 or supportus@nottinghamplayhouse.co.uk.
If you’d like to become a Patron but would prefer to pay in monthly instalments, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
