Donate to Summer Place Theatre in Naperville

We Love Our Donors!

It takes a village to make a community theatre! We would not be where we are today without the contributions of wonderful people in the community. And of course we can't get to where we want to be tomorrow without support from our new friends and existing sponsors. Thank you for your continued support.

Utilizing pro-bono artists and countless volunteers, ticket sales alone cannot support our high-quality productions.

Help us kick-off the 2025 Season with a donation to help cover the cost of expenses related to providing quality performances at a low price in Naperville.

Please consider making a donation in the amount of one of the upcoming 2025 season expenses:

Suggested Donation: $59; in honor of our 59th season!

Costume Rental: $4,000 for the season; or $80 covers the cost of costuming one performer for one production

New Keyboard: $1,000

Technical Direction: $1,000 per production

Performance Royalties: $550 per performance

Set: $275 pays for the set for a single performance

Actor Microphone Belts: $53, buys 8 mic belts

Batteries: $30 per performance
