🎭 Something Big Is Coming… 🎭
For the past several years, Trinity Theatre Company, in partnership with the Columbus Recreation and Parks Department, has been committed to bringing the powerful works of August Wilson to life for Columbus audiences.
Together, we’ve already produced Gem of the Ocean and The Piano Lesson, sharing stories that celebrate Black history, culture, resilience, and humanity. But our vision is even bigger.
Our goal is to produce all 10 plays of August Wilson’s American Century Cycle, ensuring that each story continues to educate, inspire, and challenge audiences for generations to come.
This Monday, we launch our fundraiser campaign:
🎭 Bring August Wilson’s Legacy to Columbus 🎭
Our goal is to raise $5,000 to help support the next production in the cycle and continue this important work.
Your support will help us:
✨ Secure production rights
✨ Build sets and costumes
✨ Support local artists and technicians
✨ Create meaningful cultural experiences for our community
✨ Continue preserving and sharing the stories of one of America’s greatest playwrights
This campaign isn’t just about producing a play.
It’s about preserving a legacy.
It’s about making sure these stories continue to be told.
It’s about giving our community access to transformative theatre that reflects our history, our struggles, our triumphs, and our voices.
On Monday, we’re asking friends, family, theatre lovers, community leaders, and supporters of the arts to join us in making this vision a reality.
Whether you give $5, $50, $500, or simply share the campaign with others, every act of support moves us closer to the goal.
📅 Campaign Launches Monday
🎯 Fundraising Goal: $5,000
Together, let’s ensure that August Wilson’s voice continues to echo throughout Columbus and beyond.
Will you help us bring the entire American Century Cycle to our city?
