Corporate Sponsorship Form


This is the list of the different levels of sponsorship available at the Canton Theatre.

Dear Sponsors and Patrons:


Thank you for making our past season a success! The Historic Canton Theatre has finished its run for the 2007 season with many of our shows being “sold out” in advance. We greatly appreciate your support.

Our next season, 2007/2008 starts in October 2007 and runs through March 2008 with shows appearing from October through March. During the spring and summer months, we will be bringing in children’s shows, workshops for all ages as well as opening the theatre for event rentals such as meetings, receptions, fundraisers and weddings.

We are beginning our fundraising for the 2007/2008 season now so that we can have all the information ready for our opening in October this year. We are working on introducing more educational programs and to finding new ways to be of service to the community. We have set an ambitious goal of $175,000 for this season.

Our reasonable ticket prices, generous sponsorship packages and popular 501(c)(3) rental rates are what have made us an outstanding choice of community events. As always, with some the higher levels of sponsorship, you receive vouchers for tickets to the productions.

Your generous donation to the Historic Canton Theatre will benefit not only the theatre but also the Canton community. We have developed a loyal patronage for our evening performances and have become a local theatre to bring school groups for plays during the day. Our patrons help keep their money in Canton and Cherokee County. We have approximately 10,000 people a year come to our variety of shows, and what better way to advertise to people than through our show programs or with a sponsorship.

The sponsorship for the Historic Canton Theatre runs from October 1, 2007 through September 30, 2008. We have consolidated the information this year into a new format that we hope is easier for you to understand. The deadline for the sponsorship drive is September 5, 2007.

We are offering several advertising opportunities in our programs for the 2007/2008 season at reasonable rates. In addition, we are offering the ability to put your company’s name on tickets for a show. These programs offer a great way to promote your business as well as support the historic Canton Theatre.

As always, I appreciate your help and patronage. I am committed to bringing shows and events to our community that will have appeal for everyone. Thank you for your ongoing support.
