Our Fundraiser Ends With A Wild Week

As expected, this week has been a rollercoaster with malfunctioning brakes. It's not quite over yet, but as the process plays itself out, we want to thank you for supporting children's theatre during a tumultuous and exceptionally challenging time. Support from our 77 donors enabled us to raise $7,098 through our Fractured Atlas fundraiser. That's 142% of our $5,000 goal! During the most uncertain time of just about anyone's life. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. 

We shall be in touch over the coming weeks about the perks that await some of you, but again, we have to say THANKS to ALL!!! We had such fun during the special fundraiser shows Friday October 23, and we can't wait to have another adult show. But until then, thank you!

Our Special Shows + Other Perks

We have to thank you again for participating in Adventure Players Live!'s first ever Fundraiser. We have been thrilled and truly touched to get this support from our *67* donors! You've helped us soar past $5,000 to raise $6,603.99, which is 88% of our $7,500 Stretch Goal. And we still have two weeks left! Thanks so much.

We can't wait to see so many of you tomorrow for our special 6pm and 9pm ET Fundraiser Performances, "The Search For The Lost Monarch." Please do note that in agreeing to accept the Zoom Link invitation and upon entry of the Zoom Room you are granting us permission to record your participation in the performance and your image may be used in our promotional materials. We also reference recordings internally for our own improvement. 

Perks such as the GGF Cocktail recipe and APL mugs will be sent at a later date, and you shall hear from us when the snazzy new Donor Wall is "built" on our website.

If you haven't already, please like our Facebook page, follow us on Instagram, and join our newsletter!

We Passed $5,000! Upward We Go!

An awesome thing happened yesterday: our fundraiser passed $5,000!!!
With 45 donors, our Fractured Atlas Crowdfunding Campaign has now raised $5,458; that's 109% of our goal. With 20 days left!

So...We are raising the goal to $7,500! The campaign ends Thursday November 5th at 5pm; please spread the word, and help us get to $7,500 before November 5.

When you post or email or text people about our campaign, please let them know that all donations are tax-deductible and we've got a LOT of exciting perks (including our very first Adults Only Show, Friday October 23 at 9pm). By donating, they'll help us bring The Great Great Forest to even more families through subsidized tickets, partnerships with public libraries and schools, and special birthday party shows.

Please do share our Fractured Atlas crowdfunding page and our website if you haven't yet, and consider signing up for our newsletter, too. Stay tuned for more exciting updates, and thanks again for all your support!

What A Great First Week!

Thank you so much, from the bottom of our hearts. This has been an amazing first week for our fundraising campaign. YOU made that happen.

We're at $2,800, which is 56% of our $5,000 goal. With over 3 weeks left! We also have a donor who will match up to $1,000 in contributions this week. We know we will meet our $5,000 goal, but we would LOVE to exceed it by the end of this week.

Will you help us out again by sharing our fundraiser on social media, or directly with friends, families, and colleagues who you think would support Adventure Players Live! as donors? If you know families looking for a fun educational activity for their 5 to 9 year old kids, please share our website with them, too. A short note explaining that, for over 6 months, this ensemble of actors, clowns, musicians, visual artists, writers, directors and educators has performed over 40 interactive shows for hundreds of kids around the country using Zoom, would help! We're so proud of the work we've done and we want to expand access so any family can enjoy it.

Thank you again!

We reached our $5,000 Goal! So now we're going for $7,500!


Adventure Players Live! is an ensemble of professional artists and educators who blend storytelling, music, art, and movement into interactive online performances for kids ages 5 to 9.

Since March we've used Zoom to bring over 40 shows to more than 400 kids around the country. Our adventures happen in an imaginative world we call The Great Great Forest, filled with wild spots and exciting characters.

By Giving You Will: 
  • Support kids in developing imagination and resilience in a fun community  
  • Help us partner with more libraries, school districts, and arts organizations to bring performances to kids in this unprecedented time 
  • Enable upgrades to our production value
  • Give us resources for the commitment to antiracism our partnership is making along with theater companies around the USA.

Your Donation Covers:
  • $2,500 to subsidize 125 full cost tickets or 250 half price tickets
  • $4,000 to underwrite 10 library shows this season
  • $1,000 towards materials costs
  • Our training and relationship building to join other American theater institutions in budgeting diversity, equity, and inclusion into every facet of our work. 

For the last 6 months, our show has thrown a lifeline to hundreds of families by keeping kids engaged with one another in a fun and whimsical setting while adults take a break. Parents in New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida, Texas, Michigan, Montana, Colorado, Washington, and California (and even the British Isles!) have brought their children to The Great Great Forest for weekly shows and custom Birthday Parties. We are also partnering with the Brooklyn Public Library to reach an even wider audience this season. Help us remove cost as a barrier!

Awesome perks include admission to special Fundraiser Shows October 23, and one is just for adults! Yep, a "kids show" for adults!

Every contribution is appreciated! Does your employer match donations? If so, your contribution can go twice as far. If you can’t give money, we understand. You can still share our fundraiser and website far and wide.

As teaching artists, our ensemble members have worked with The New Victory Theatre, Roundabout Theatre, Story Pirates, Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival, Stages on the Sound, and The Denver Center. As performers, we have appeared in shows on Broadway and with companies such as Third Rail Projects, Metropolitan Opera House, Disney, Ringling Brothers, Second Stage, Bristol Old Vic, Williamstown Theatre Festival, The Actors Theatre of Louisville, and more.
