Syracuse Stage receives national grant
(Syracuse Stage is one of thirteen theatres across the nation to receive a grant for Future Audiences from the New Generations Program, a grant initiative cooperatively designed by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and Theatre Communications Group (TCG). Syracuse Stage will receive $77,000 to help expand and strengthen existing, unique, and innovative audience development programs that have proven effective in reaching young, culturally specific and/or underserved audiences.

Future plans for attracting theatergoers to Syracuse Stage include live music during the post-show opening night celebrations in association with WAER 88.3, LGBT Pride Night Series, Actor Talkback Series, Welch Allyn Signed Interpreted Performance Series, Wednesday @ 1 Lecture Series, M&T Bank Pay What You Can Nights, involvement in Syracuse’s TH3 citywide arts open, and special events in association with the groups CNY Reads, 40 Below, Pulse at Syracuse University, Onondaga Historical Association and other area groups.
