$70k Raised Through Playhouse On Park's ENCORE! IMAGINE IF… Fundraiser

Playhouse on Park supporters gathered on May 14th, 2022 for the Playhouse's annual fundraiser, ENCORE! This year's theme was IMAGINE IF... Can you imagine a world without theatre or theatre education? Imagine If... all the proceeds from this uniquely entertaining evening were dedicated to keeping professional live theatre on the Playhouse on Park stage, and bringing excellent theatre arts programs through Playhouse Theatre Academy to children and youth for years to come! The event was held at The Clerestory Ballroom (Hilliard Mills) in Manchester, CT. A net total of $70,000 was raised from this fantastic evening.
