  • Why I'm Doing This
  • What I'm Raising Money For

I joined the Neo-Futurist ensemble in 2020 and have been a fan since I was sixteen years old. I find joy in asking for donations to help The Neos continue to make brand new, exciting, thoughtful, challenging work because, always and forever, I am a fan, first and foremost of this company and these artists.

This company is the people in it. I am in constant awe of the commitment, the drive, the talent, and the care of every ensemble and staff member. We believe in the work we are doing and we want to continue to do it for a thousand years.

We've got so much cool shit cooking and your funds will help make it all possible. What will your money help support? A whole lot. Here are a few examples:
A world premiere of How to be Cool by Neil Bhandari.
Supporting the work of eight new members of our Artists of Color Scholar cohort, including classes and a residency program.
Pay-you-can tickets available for every single performance of The Infinite Wrench.
Subsidizing costs for other Chicago artists to rent our rehearsal spaces for low prices because what are we without our community??
Offering health insurance stipends to both our staff and our performing ensemble.
Helping us continue to develop a more horizontal administrative structure, based around consensus and ensemble instead of the typical non-profit executive hierarchy.


Thanks for being here. Thanks for reading. Thanks for donating.
