We just closed our most successful season opener in our eleven year history. Now, we need your help to keep up the momentum and continue to bring new exciting plays to Ann Arbor.

Theatre NOVA supports playwrights, teaches children and adults, makes tickets accessible for all, and brings our audiences exciting, thought-provoking, heartfelt new plays from around the world and right here at home.

Our mission is year-round, but our biggest fundraiser is right now! Our end-of-year campaign raises crucial funds to keep the stage lights shining bright. Can you make a donation to support live theatre today? 

We are a 501c3, so your gift is fully tax-deductible. And it is among great company-- in 2025, we have recieved grants from the Michigan Arts & Culture Council, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Shubert Foundation, the Ann Arbor Community Foundation, the Ann Arbor Awesome Foundation, and One by One. Over a decade strong, we aren't going anywhere any time soon!

Thank you, Carla, Bri, Diane, Shelby, Becky, and Sarah. 

P.S. Many folks have asked us about the status of Michigan Arts & Culture Council funding. While $12 million of state funds have been restored, 2026 grant programs have, to date, not been announced. Stay tuned (and keep your fingers crossed!)

Theatre NOVA is dedicated to raising awareness of the value and excitement of new plays and new playwrights in a diverse and expanding audience; and providing resources and outlets for playwrights to develop their craft, by importing, exporting, and developing new plays and playwrights.
