Producers Circle

Be a part of our future

Looking for an easy, affordable way to support OCT regularly and help pave our future? We are excited to introduce our new OCT Producers Circle!

Right now you can join the Producers Circle by becoming a monthly donor—at any level—for access to exclusive perks and benefits. (Need an idea to get started? Consider $35/month in support of our 35th Season!) All monthly donors will become part of the OCT Producers Circle, making a huge collective impact and telling the community that we need OCT as part of Portland’s arts landscape for years to come. 

By contributing monthly, members of the Producers Circle provide OCT with a reliable revenue stream that supports our day-to-day operations and production costs. As a thank-you for their support, members receive a variety of benefits, including early ticketing access to all productions, complimentary booster seat rental & coat check at our Mainstage venues, exclusive invites to OCT events, including “Meet the Artists,” backstage tours, opportunities to engage with our Producing Artistic Director, and much more.

2024–2025 Member Benefits include:

As our way of saying thank you, Producers Circle members receive exclusive benefits and opportunities:

  • Early ticket access to our Mainstage productions

  • 20% off an OCT Acting Academy Class

  • Access to Backstage Tours

  • A special gift each year, including a Producers Circle membership pin and autographed posters from our productions

  • Be a part of our rebuilding: you’ll be invited to an exclusive town hall conversation with OCT’s Leadership Team to discuss our future plans and goals.

  • Ongoing opportunities and invitations to meet the artists, attend special OCT events and engage with our Producing Artistic Director.

Your Impact

Only a portion of our operating expenses are covered by ticket sales alone, meaning that the majority of our budget is supplemented by grants, foundations, and the support of donors like you.

Here’s what would be lost in a single season without OCT Mainstage shows:

  • 100,000+ local youth wouldn’t attend OCT field trips, which are often a child’s first experience seeing live professional theatre.

  • 10,000+ families wouldn’t attend live theatre together, missing the opportunity to educate, inspire and spark family conversations.

  • Thousands of youth won’t descend on the Newmark Theatre during the week, which helps improves safety, local businesses, and our economy.

  • Hundreds of local teachers and educators will be left without arts curriculum (including OCT classroom resource guides) since school arts budgets are being cut aggressively.

• …and so much more.

Becoming a monthly donor, and joining our Producers Circle, provides us with the financial stability to continue serving youth and families. Join us today and become a part of OCT’s future!
