Just 4 days left to give to the FAUST SYNDROME fundraiser! Help us bring this story of power, bargains with the devil, and the to the stage at theaterinasylum.com/donate.

The Deadly Sin of Lust makes for some of the best stories, and it was fully on display in our 2013 production of ¡Olé! The tumultuous love affair between Salvador Dalí and Federico Garcia Lorca began in college and ended with Dalí’s flight to Paris as Spain descended into civil war. ¡Olé! takes audiences into the bullring as these two matadors pit magic against science through paint, poetry, and flamenco dance.

We at TIA are big fans of those reusable cups Broadway shows give out, so we decided it was high time we made our own! Donate $35 or more to our FAUST SYNDROME fundraiser and get a fabulous reusable cup featuring the TIA logo and every show we've produced since 2010! Bring your cup to the show and we'll fill it with wine (or a beverage of your choosing). Tempted by a drink with the devil? We urge you to give in.

Donate to secure your cup at theaterinasylum.com/donate!

We are more than two-thirds of the way through our fundraiser, and nearly two-third of the way to our $15,000 goal in our FAUST SYNDROME fundraiser! We are so close to hitting the five figure mark…can we get there today?

We can’t wait to share Faust Syndrome with you this fall, but we need your help to make this show happen. Pitching in even as little as $5 helps, and gets you early access to buy tickets when they go on sale. Donate before May 31 at theaterinasylum.com/donate!

Who hasn’t wanted a little more? We at TIA can understand greed that when it comes to Rick’s cookies, but what we can’t understand is corporate greed. In fact, we’ve made two shows about it! TOTALLY WHOLESOME FOODS by Alice Pencavel and OCCUPY PRESCOTT by Andy Boyd both embrace the little guys who stand up to their corporate overlords. Our characters didn’t necessarily succeed, but we like to think their efforts made progress in the demolishing of unjust systems.

This fall will mark our third show with this theme, FAUST SYNDROME. Donate to art that keeps fighting the power 👉 theaterinasylum.com/donate
