PRODUCTION SUPPORT
If you are offered a role in the production, you’ll be invited to attend an Information Night to learn more about the DreamWrights experience. There is no longer a required fee to participate. Instead, we encourage those who are able to support DreamWrights through membership or a donation. As a nonprofit, we rely on community generosity to make productions like this possible, since ticket sales cover only a portion of our costs.
