Businesses and individuals can see their name in lights by becoming a program sponsor.  Sponsors give between $1,000 for a straight play and $2,000 for a musical.  Benefits to the sponsor include recognition in all press releases, ads, programs, posters and other printed materials.  Sponsors are essential to RECT, as a straight play can cost up to $5,000 to produce, and production expenses for musicals can exceed $10,000.  Sponsorships are now available for the 2008-2009 Main Stage and Children’s Theatre season.
