For over four decades, the remarkable generosity of our donors has remained the driving force behind Teatro Live’s ability to craft unforgettable theatrical experiences. As a non-profit and registered charitable organization our ticket sales and donations make up well over 80% of our annual revenue. And thus, Teatro will always feel the positive impact from each one-time or monthly donation given to our organization. Every donation, regardless of its magnitude, carries immense significance in allaying our artist, production, and promotional expenses. By contributing today, you join the Teatro family in bringing the visions of Stewart Lemoine (our resident playwright), modern classics by world renowned playwrights, and new works by our ensemble of Edmonton artists to the Teatro Live! stage in Edmonton, AB.

Our Join the 400 Campaign Update: As of June 19th, 2024
The Teatro 400! YES WE DID!
As all who follow Teatro Live are likely aware, this season saw the launch of our unique fundraising initiative inviting folks to “Join the Teatro 400”. The goal was to pay off the $40,000 federally administered CEBA loan which helped us to cover basic operational and staffing expenses during the shutdown of 2020/21, and the thinking behind this campaign was that if just 400 individuals donated $100 each, we’d kick this debt to the curb in no time flat. Well we’re pleased to report that WE DID IT! And what’s more YOU DID IT! We reached our goal on June 9, and what’s more, over the course of the following week we raised a further $1200 to cover the additional 3% in administrative fees that Canada Helps charges for the wonderful service they provide to non-profits like Teatro. AND in addition to the online total, we’ve received an additional $3400 through various other platforms- cheque, cash, debit - for a grand total of $46,006.76.
Now, we promised that there’d be A PARTY FOR THE 400! once we achieved our goal and we want you to know that we’re on it. It won’t likely be until some point in the upcoming season because we need time to make sure it’s just that good and that everyone can make it. But please stand by for more information. We’re so grateful to everyone who contributed so generously and enthusiastically to this initiative. Raising that five figure sum may have been our stated primary goal, but the real benefit is that unencumbered by debt, we can now get back to the business of seizing new opportunities, creating new structures, and revving up the riot of fun that is Teatro Live! WELL DONE, EVERYBODY!
Teatro La Quindicina operates with the assistance of Alberta Community Development, Alberta Lotteries, The Alberta Foundation for the Arts, The Edmonton Arts Council, and The Edmonton Community Foundation.
