MOTHER COURAGE AND HER CHILDREN at Southern Rep Theatre

Southern Rep Theatre Announces GoFundMe Campaign To Keep Its Doors Open

Nationally acclaimed new play development theatre, Southern Rep, finds itself in a heartbreaking situation. Ticket sales and mainstage subscriptions are at an all-time high. Arts education programming is thriving. Audiences are raving about the work and the company's new venue, the former St. Rose de Lima Church on Bayou Road. And still, Southern Rep finds itself in an urgent financial crisis as it navigates the expenses of moving into their new home.
