We’ll need the Kickstarter to succeed to help us get off the ground. As this season progresses we’ll begin to qualify for grants from government and private foundations and we’ll be eligible for corporate underwriting as well. Theatre, even at the highest levels, always depends on the generosity of individual donors and the tireless efforts of Board members. We need to raise $10K in order to make this season happen. We’ll gratefully accept all the help we can get from donors. But we also have Board members and friends of the Company who are willing to make a lot of sacrifices to ensure that our mission becomes reality. </p>http://thefineprinttheatre.org/post/9197071724http://thefineprinttheatre.org/post/9197071724Sun, 21 Aug 2025 01:23:08 -04002 days to raise $2,800!<a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/844995013/the-fine-print-theatre-company-inaugural-season">2 days to raise $2,800!</a>: <p>We’re nearing the halfway point of our Kickstarter campaign.
