Benefactors are recognised for their support in a number of ways and can choose which area of Auckland Theatre Company’s work they wish to support. All Benefactors receive updates and news associated with the activity their donations are supporting.
Patrons meet at a private function in the first part of the year to decide where their donation will be directed. Patrons also have access to open rehearsals during the year. All donations made to Auckland Theatre Company are fully receipted for tax deduction purposes.
