YESSSSSSSSSSS it's my birthday and it's time for the annual Neo-Futurists fundraiser and this year I'm setting a goal of raising $5,000 for the greatest theater company in the world. If you've spent even 30 minutes with me in the past two-and-a-half years, you've no doubt heard all about how much this place and these people and our work means to me, and it would mean so much to me if you'd share your support for what we do.

~ THE EVENT: December 8th, 2019 ~
The campaign continues through November into December, with the culminating event of TIW24 on December 8, 7:00PM, when The Neo-Futurist ensemble will perform 30 world premiere plays, written and rehearsed in only 24-hour’s time. This is our grand, high-octane way of celebrating all the contributions that helped reach our fundraising goals.
~ ABOUT THE NEO-FUTURISTS ~
As a non-profit arts organization, TIW24 (previously Can't Stop//Won't Stop) is the annual fundraiser of The Neo-Futurist Theater. Since 1988, the mission of The Neo-Futurists has been to create “work that embraces those unreached or unmoved by conventional theater – inspiring them to thought, feeling and action.” While the company has changed in many ways after 30 years, that mission remains consistent, pushing the art-making to move audiences that demand honest communication and reflection in an increasingly fast-paced, hyperbolic world.
We believe in art and performance that defies convention and exercises radical compassion, continually growing and changing to meet/exceed necessities of accessibility, equitability, and accountability. To make that kind of art, we depend on the support of people just like you.
All the ways you can help The Neo-Futurists:
-- Donate to TIW24 now! Or, before December 8th.
-- Join the Team, and ask your extended networks to benefit The Neo-Futurists
-- Attend the culminating of TIW24 on December 8 @ 7:00PM, at The Neo-Futurist Theater.
