Sponsor a Program

A $3,500 sponsorship covers one performance of TELL ME SOMETHING, our signature interactive improv show hosted by drag sensation Vanity LaVain. Featuring Strike Anywhere’s acclaimed ensemble, the performance is shaped entirely by audience input and brought to life through Soundpainting, the universal sign language for live composition.
Your sponsorship helps keep tickets affordable and accessible so that people of all ages and backgrounds can experience innovative, high-quality theater. By underwriting a show, you make it possible for more voices to enter the creative process, ensuring the performance reflects the unique perspectives of the community. Each event creates an unforgettable night of joy, laughter, and connection—fostering dialogue, building empathy, and strengthening community bonds.

A $5,000 sponsorship brings our professional ensemble into a school to perform on the school’s stage, giving students a live, immersive theater experience. Before the performance, our artists lead pre-show workshops that introduce students to the creative process behind the production, explore key themes and complex issues they will encounter in the show, and provide context that deepens engagement. Students meet the artists and gain insight into how the performance was devised, giving them a unique lens through which to experience the production. After the show, we offer a post-performance talkback, where students can discuss the content, ask questions, and critically engage with the themes alongside the artists themselves. This full experience—workshop, performance, and talkback—cultivates curiosity, empathy, and a deeper connection to the work.

Our Flexible Funding Sponsorship supports the core operations of our theater company, including production costs, community outreach, and the salaries of our senior staff, who guide our artistic vision and organizational strategy. This unrestricted funding is especially valuable because it allows us to respond in real time to the areas of greatest need, helping us remain artistically bold, innovative, and accessible to our community. By adopting a Flexible Funding Sponsorship, you directly enable our team to pursue creative opportunities, strengthen programs, and sustain the work that makes our company vibrant and impactful.

A $10,000 sponsorship supports a full season of rehearsals and training for our 11-member ensemble of multidisciplinary performers. This funding ensures the continued artistic growth and collaboration of our ensemble and directly fuels the development of the bold, community-engaged work that defines our season.

A $15,000 sponsorship brings a professional teaching artist into a NYC public school for a 12-week residency, including workshops, planning sessions with co-teachers, and a culminating student performance supported by the professional ensemble. Our project-based residencies let students explore core curriculum or a specific topic through active, arts-based strategies, developing teamwork, problem-solving, and communication skills along the way. Signature programs like Windows and Mirrors and Say It Forward use theater and storytelling to amplify student voice, build empathy, and connect students with meaningful content. By supporting a residency, you give students a deep, hands-on arts experience that sparks creativity, confidence, and lasting impact in the classroom and beyond.
Why give?
At Strike Anywhere, we harness the power of art to ignite dialogue and drive social change. From creating original performances with students to partnering with communities on urgent issues, our work centers on connection and collective action.
Your gift fuels paid rehearsals, accessible performances, and transformative arts-in-education programs—empowering the next generation of citizen artists and leaders. Join our vibrant community. Your support keeps the work alive, and the conversation going.
