Golden Thread Productions thanks these organizations and individuals without whose generous support we could not continue to produce high quality, cutting edge theatre exploring the Middle East.
Many thanks to our 2012 Donors – We could not do this without you!!!
Tree of Life Donors
Tree of Life
A Fund for New Play Development
Golden Thread’s Tree of Life campaign is inspired by the Wishing Trees frequently encountered in the Middle East symbolizing the continuity of life from our ancestors to future generations. An inspiration to the design and story of our 2011 season-opener, Night Over Erzinga, the Tree of Life campaign has evolved into Golden Thread’s Fund for New Play Development offering an opportunity for individual donors to be a part of every world premiere. The 5-foot Tree of Life bearing family names and dedications from donors like you will be on display in the theatre lobby during Golden Thread’s main-stage productions.
Partner with us in bringing untold stories and vital alternative perspectives of the Middle East to the American stage.
