Partnering with Arena Stage as a corporate member gives your company unsurpassed access to the arts. Our membership program provides opportunities to meet our Artistic Team, go on a personalized backstage tour of our theaters and shops, attend Opening Nights and meet the cast of the production.

Your membership also supports educational programs at Arena Stage which include bringing Washington, DC metropolitan area students to the theater for little-to-no cost, providing after-school programs for at-risk youth and training classroom teachers through professional development workshops on how to incorporate theater into the core curriculum.

"Theater enriches life – it entertains and examines important issues in our society."
–Robert Prosky, actor and former Arena Stage company member

"My purpose in my art is to transform pain into power."
–Daniel Beaty, playwright

 

Theater not only exposes people to the power of art but also offers them insights into the history and essence of the human condition—our struggles, triumphs, ideas, emotions and viewpoints.

From age 5 to 95, theater is a life-long learning experience that teaches us all something new about ourselves and the world around us.
