Rent WOW Theatre! WOW is available to individuals and organizations for activities that resonate with our mission. The rate is a very modest $15 per hour. Additional fee applies if admission is charged to the rental event, and if additional WOW staff are required to be on-site. Hold your rehearsal, teatime, bat mitzvah, workshop, etc., in our theatre space! Contact rentalspace@wowcafe.org
The Capital Campaign Recently, WOW launched its first large-scale fundraising effort, a capital campaign to help us buy and renovate our theater. The City of New York has sold the tenants of 59-61 East 4th Street the building for $1! The caveat: That we raise the funds to renovate the building, and bring it up to code. WOW’s share of renovation costs is $125,000. As we have survived solely on box-office sales for 25 years, this is more money than we’ve ever had or needed in the past.	When we do succeed in securing these funds, WOW will own its own permanent theater space in a completely renovated building. One of the most exciting aspects, which we have achieved, is the addition of a functional 24/7 self-service elevator! Yet to come is ADA-compliant bathrooms, which will finally make our theatre fully accessible to people of all abilities. We have raised more than 3/4 of the total, but are not there yet! In order to make this possible, we urgently need your financial help! No donation is too small or too large, and any amount will help us ensure that theatre by women and by transgender people continues to thrive and be truly accessible.
