Become a Beacon of Hope, Love, and Light!

American Shakespeare Center evokes the tradition of leaving a candle placed in the window, as a sign of hope for a safe return home into the warmth and light of the Blackfriars Playhouse. Your donation of $250 or more will light a candle that will radiate through downtown Staunton; creating a beacon of hope, love, and light to guide us back to the Blackfriars Playhouse until we as a community can safely reconvene. Our actors and staff look forward to seeing you in the new year for our much anticipated return.
