A Community Partnership

“Just like the 35 years of selfless giving, the future of STAGES St. Louis is in the loving and nurturing hands of the community. STAGES has always been a Performing Arts Organization built by the people of St. Louis. I don’t see that generosity changing anytime soon as we move into a brilliant future.”
– Jack Lane, Executive Producer – STAGES St. Louis

“The City of Kirkwood and STAGES have forged a decades-long relationship that has brought nationally-recognized productions to our area to the delight of theatre lovers. Our working together has now resulted in the building of the beautiful, state-of-the-art Kirkwood Performing Arts Center which will be a regional draw for the arts of all types. As the Mayor of Kirkwood I am grateful for the long and successful partnership we have had with STAGES and look forward to working together for years to come.”
– Tim Griffin, Mayor – City of Kirkwood

The Jack Lane New Works Development Fund

With the success of the pre-Broadway tryout of THE KARATE KID – The Musical, it has become clear that a new Funding arm at STAGES needs to be established. This Fund will address both the exploration of New Works for STAGES and the actual implementation and producing of these works. These funds will be carefully and selectively used for the research of New Works and travel to the cities where these works are being presented in readings or workshop format. Once a New Work is deemed viable for a STAGES Season, this Fund will also support some of the key production expenses. This Fund will significantly leverage the future impact New Works can have on bottom-line STAGES financials.

Levels include:

• $25,000
• $10,000
• $5,000
• $2,500
• $1,000
• $500
