In total, the theatre raised about $107,000, including the $50,000 donation from Par Mar.
"[It] certainly exceeded our expectations, and we're really happy that we were able to raise some money during what our obviously tough times for everybody," said Hunt Brawley, Executive Director of People's Bank Theatre.
Brawley says that this money should get them through the next four to five months of closure due to the health crisis.
