Support this Production!

This summer The Little Mermaid is coming to CCT and we need your support!

 

At Columbia Children’s Theatre we keep the prices as low as possible so more young people can have access to the transformative power of live theatre. We stand by that decision, but it means that program fees like tickets, registrations, and classes cover just 70% of the revenue needed to run the organization. For the remaining 30% we depend on our community.
