"Good playwriting is a collaboration between your many selves. The more multiple your personalities, the further, wider, deeper you will be able to go."

-Jose Rivera, Playwright.

WHAT YOUR DONATION DOES:

This campaign was created to bring Andrew Cristi plays closer to fruition. Theater is expensive and your contribution goes towards artist honorariums, materials, ASL interpreters and other costs that go into producing readings in New York City. Any contribution is appreciated, whether it's sharing this fundraiser on social media or donating what you can.

THANK YOU!
