Join Us!

Since 1960, the Old Town Playhouse has been bringing the best in Community Theatre to the Grand Traverse region. A leader in the area’s rich cultural environment, the Old Town Playhouse brings entertainment and education to over 20,000 participants each year, through over 90 performances, 25 Children’s Theatre performances and numerous special events and community appearances. Driven by the passion and energy of its volunteers, the Old Town Playhouse brings together hundreds of community residents to create quality entertainment and moving arts experiences for all ages.

As we work to provide high-quality entertainment while keeping ticket prices at an accessible level, the costs for each OTP production cannot be covered through ticket sales alone.  With generous support from underwriters, sponsors, advertisers, members and individual donors, the future of Community Theatre and this treasured facility are maintained and protected. We hope that you will consider supporting the Old Town Playhouse and playing your role today!

Underwriting and Advertising

For businesses wishing to demonstrate their support for the Old Town Playhouse and our cultural community, there are a wide variety of sponsorship and advertising options. Advertising and sponsorship packages may also be adapted to meet individual business interests and investment options for potential sponsors. Old Town Playhouse audiences vary greatly in size, from the 500 attendees who see a Studio Theatre production to the over 4,500 audience members who will attend a musical over a 4 week performance schedule. Advertising and publicity for each production varies as well, so businesses may have varying levels of exposure to potential ticket buyers and the general community. We would be delighted to create a package for your business to meet your advertising goals and outreach options.

Individual Support for the Old Town Playhouse

Individual support and participation is the heart of any successful community theatre. For over 50 years, the Old Town Playhouse has welcomed thousands of volunteers, friends and supporters and offered a vibrant environment for participation, enjoyment and support. Old Town Playhouse members have the opportunity to participate more fully in the life of the OTP, by serving on the Board or other leadership committees and as a voting member, to shape plans for the future of the organization.



OTP is committed to continuing its four decade tradition as a volunteer-based theatre. Our success - past, present, and future - is dependent on the dedication of our 300 plus volunteers whose time, talents and spirit continue to bring the quality entertainment that OTP prides itself on.

Many faces truly bring our theatre to life - building sets, sewing costumes, selling tickets, planning fundraisers, planning rehearsals, running lights, sweeping floors and shining on stage.
