Production Sponsorships
With a consistent reputation for marrying artistic quality with socially-conscious programming, Ensemble Theatre’s productions attract 30,000 patrons to Over-the-Rhine annually—including more than 2,500 loyal subscribers, a diverse group of single-ticket buyers, business leaders, and arts enthusiasts.
Each season, we produce seven mainstage productions, with sponsorships for these ranging from $2,500 to $20,000+. Our production sponsors receive prominent promotional, experiential, and reputation-enhancing benefits which engage employees and build relationships with clients.
Education Sponsorships
We are committed to introducing audiences from under-resourced schools and organizations throughout the Greater Cincinnati area to theatre and believe everyone should have access to the arts, regardless of socioeconomic status or ability.
Underwriting opportunities are available for our award-winning education and engagement programs, which encourage the development of creative young minds and healthy communities. These programs collectively serve 20,000 students, educators, and patrons annually.
Professional Acting Apprentice Program Sponsorships
Beginning with our 1990-1991 Season, Ensemble Theatre has recruited, supported, and developed dozens of early-career actors, artists, and arts leaders through our Professional Acting Apprentice Program.
This season-long immersive experience serves as a bridge between professional-bound actors’ training backgrounds and their future careers. Our Apprentices are a vital component of our Ensemble, taking an active role in every mainstage production throughout the year.
Your sponsorship supports their understudy performances, master classes and professional development, salaries, and an annual Apprentice production.
