ACCESS MEMBERSHIP:
We are thrilled to announce our new Signature Access Membership initiative. We know that there are many barriers that can keep people away from the theater, and we want to remove these to make Signature a place that welcomes everyone. This program aims to expand access to underserved communities and continue our mission of creating a space for all. With the support of Signature partners and donor contributions, affordable tickets are made available for every production.
