R2P Needs Your Support:
Did you know: Between renting a theater, licensing scripts, building scenery, and paying our professional artists and technicians, it costs R2P around $20,000 to produce a show?
R2P is committed to keeping the joys of live theatre accessible to everyone – but we can’t do it without the support of our community. When registering, you may select free tickets – or tickets with built-in donations at a variety of levels. At checkout, you also will have the option of adding a donation of any amount.
Thank you for helping us keep the doors open wide to every child and family in our community.

Can a group of young rebels take on a corrupt corporation's insane policies in the middle of a climate crisis – or will they all end up in Urinetown?

Support R2P
Free participation for every student and audience member is only possible when folks who can chip in monthly become R2Patrons. Think of it like NPR - content is made available for free, but those who are able to donate, do so to keep it available for all. (Plus, like NPR, there are nifty thank you gifts, too!) Thank you for helping us make theatre accessible to everyone in our community…
Mission Statement:
Running to Places (R2P) is a youth development organization that seeks to foster a safe and supportive community where any interested youth has the opportunity to learn important life skills through theatre.
