Chekhov’s classic circus of neurotic characters, petty resentments, misdirected love, and self-created hardship reflects the isolation and divisive perceptions of our times.

Can no one in this rural 19th century Russian estate get what they want, or is everyone destined to settle?

Support Our Program

CSUN Theatre Supporter, we need your help! Each semester, more than 100 students come together – working with faculty, staff, and professional guest artists – to create the theatrical works on our stages, like William Shakespeare’s The Tempest, Legally Blonde: The Musical, or A Streetcar Named Desire.    

It costs us about $100,000 to bring these productions to our stages, and while we receive support from the university for our shows, revenue from ticket sales make up more than 50% of our budget. We’re glad to present all of our shows this semester to you free of charge – though this presents a challenge to us for all the productions planned for next year.  

If you can, please consider donating whatever you might normally spend on tickets this semester by visiting this giving portal. Your support today means that we can continue to bring you the new theatrical works you love and enjoy. Whatever you can do, it is greatly appreciated!  

On behalf of all of us at Theatre CSUN, thank you for your support!
