Our DONORS

We gratefully recognize the donors whose generosity made this season possible.

Their support has allowed both theatres to continue bringing high-quality musicals, plays, and children's theatre to audiences across Spartanburg and the Upstate.

Thanks to their continued partnership, local performers have taken the stage, families have enjoyed affordable entertainment close to home, and the tradition of live theatre continues to thrive throughout the community. Spartanburg Little Theatre and Spartanburg Youth Theatre are deeply grateful for this ongoing support of local performing arts.
