Running a vital, historic theatre capable of bringing the highest caliber live entertainment as well as outreach and service programs to the Washington, D.C. area public can be a challenging enterprise.

The National Theatre Corporation, the 501.c3 not-for-profit corporation that operates the National Theatre meets this challenge. Patrons and friends of the National have various opportunities to support this historic cultural and educational institution in the heart of our Nation's Capital.

• The National Theatre Circle is a group of supporters who contribute $1500 or more annually. Circle members enjoy special hot-line access to best location house seats, other optional premiums including complimentary tickets in the Executive Star Box, bar refreshment vouchers, and honored listing in every issue of The National Theatre Playbill.
• The Dedicated Seat Program gives patrons the opportunity to be remembered, or to remember family members and friends, by placing engraved plates on seats in the historic National Theatre. Each contributor receives a beautifully framed replica of the plate placed on the seat. Dedication of a seat is the perfect and unique gift for the person "who has everything."

Contributions or participation in programs supporting the National are deductible within the limits of the law.
