Our Story
Calliope is a new company aspiring to bring a fresh face to an age-old tradition of storytelling. By reaching out to our playwriting, directing, acting, and designing friends, we hope to create artistically fulfilling opportunities for all of us starting out in this city together. In one big circle of inspiration, ambition, and collaboration, we aim to create a place to play that is uniquely our own--one of truth, mystery, and epic exploration.

What We Need
Putting together a company and a show isn't easy, and every penny helps. All money donated will go towards paying for rehearsal and performance space, insurance, compensations for artists involved and supplemental tech needs. All donations are tax-deductible.
Other Ways You Can Help
If you'd like to get involved artistically, email us at CalliopeTheatreCompany@gmail.com and let us know how you'd like to contribute. Also, come to our awesome fundraising events! We threw one heck of a party on Saturday, July 16th, and we've got two more planned before the show, on July 30th and August 12th! Stay tuned for more info.
Lastly, tell all your friends to get the word out and make some noise about our cause! Facebook, Twitter, Google+, in person, whatever works for you!
