Our Legacy

For sixty years CTM has created exceptional educational programs and theater productions, profoundly impacting the lives of thousands of children and families. We take pride in continuing these programs within our resources, always sustaining fiscal responsibility. We have evolved to serve the changing needs of our community and adapted to the challenges of our industry.

CTM Today

The past few years have illuminated the need for innovation, preparation and foresight. Across our industry many theater companies are struggling, while others have closed altogether. We are committed to affordable access for tickets and tuition, while maintaining a high standard of programming.

Why This Campaign

Ensure the Future builds stability that protects this promise for the next 60 years:

• Maintain flexible reserves so CTM can stay steady through
uncertainty
• Adapt and innovate in service of kids and families
• Keep access at the center so cost and other barriers don’t
exclude participation

And there’s a reason to act now: we are so close. With less than $800,000 left to raise, your support is truly valued.
