Ticket sales only cover 40% or less of the cost of running a theater.
YOUR donation be it $2.00 or $200,000.00, or more, makes all the difference. The amount is not important but YOUR giving is. Become a BAT supporter today!
BAT is a not-for-profit (IRS 501(c) (3)) entity, staffed by volunteers. Your tax-deductible contribution goes toward the production of better live theater, building a theater space in South King County, and BAT's day-to-day overhead (rent, utilities, office supplies, and the like) plus capital improvements!
BAT has been making better live theater since 1980, and its roots reach back to the first live theater in Burien in 1955. Keep BAT alive and strong! DONATE HERE!
