Performance Sponsorship is an opportunity for businesses and individuals to host a ‘special night’ at Ship’s Company. When you choose to sponsor a Mainstage performance, we provide a program insert announcing “Tonight’s Performance Sponsored by ‘Your Corporate Name/Logo”. Ship’s Company Theatre will provide ten complimentary tickets for your staff or associates on the evening of the sponsored performance, and will offer a discount on additional tickets, if required. Following the performance, a complimentary wine and cheese reception creates opportunity to mingle with the cast, and an opportunity for a photo of a company representative making your donation, if desired.
