Together we raised $6,500 to support Essential’s ongoing work to provide development and professional production opportunities to Georgia’s playwrights. As outlined on our campaign project page, this $6,500 will help fund Essential’s two staff positions and cover expenses for our non-festival readings, panels and conversations so that we can keep these events admission-free throughout the year.

Whether it was your first time donating to Essential or you’ve been supporting us for years, your support is essential  and we’re thankful that you are a part of the Essential tradition.

Happy Holidays! We look forward to bringing you great things in 2017!
