Chance-a-thon: where our community unites through small acts to make a major impact.

Our annual festival of live performances will take place on Saturday, June 24, and Sunday, June 25.

Chance-a-thon is a unique event where artists and community members alike come together to put on a marathon of live performances to raise money for Chance Theater’s artistic, education, and outreach programs.

Since 2012, Chance-a-thon has featured a wide variety of live performances – cabarets, new play readings, magic shows, band acts, recitals, comedy acts, improv shows, poetry and book readings, storytelling and spoken word sessions, school performance groups, and even a Miss Senior Pageant, just to name a few!

Participants need only provide a 30-80 minute show and audience. Chance Theater will take care of…

  • the Venue (choose between 140 or 50 seats)

  • the Tech (lighting and sound)

  • the Staff (crew, front-of-house, ushers)

  • Ticketing Services (online and in-person)

All proceeds directly support scholarships for students and teens on the Spectrum, free tickets to community groups, award-winning productions, and cutting-edge new works. In exchange for helping raise funds, you’ll receive honorary donor benefits for all money raised through ticket sales and donations, including invitations to artist events, listing in our show programs, and much more.

Join in the fun(draising)!
