Why This Campaign Matters

In 2025, Center Stage Productions served the highest number of youth in our 20-year history — hundreds of local performers in our productions, summer camps, and after-school programs, and thousands of audience members reached across San Diego County.

Our mission is simple but powerful:

To engage young people in musical theatre in a safe, inclusive, and creative environment where every child belongs.

This year, public funding for arts and DEI programs has been cut dramatically, coupled with the rising costs that are impacting everyone – making community support more vital than ever.

Your Gift in Action

Your support helps us:

Maintain our no-cut policy so every child can perform
Provide professional teaching artists and ASL-interpreted performances
Keep tuition affordable and accessible
Cover rehearsal space, show rights, and technical equipment
Expand outreach through after-school and internship programs

The Match

A generous donor has pledged to match all gifts up to $15,000 — doubling the impact of every donation made through December 31.

We’ve already raised our first $500 — help us build momentum and unlock the full match!
