What is pay-what-you-will?

Pay-what-you-will is a fee structure that was inspired by our sister company Seven Stages Shakespeare which allows us to keep producing free theater in spaces like Maudslay State Park while acknowledging the hard work and talents of our actors, designers, and directors. There are no tickets or reservations required for this show—we encourage our audiences to enjoy our theater the way you always have. If you are inspired to do so, making a donation to this production helps us pay our artists and allows us to produce more theater in more places. https://www.theaterintheopen.org/donate
