Keep the Curtain Rising at Bas Bleu

For 33 seasons, Bas Bleu Theatre has enthralled and captivated the Fort Collins community with bold storytelling, unforgettable performances, and a deep commitment to artistic excellence. From timeless classics to daring contemporary works, our stage has been a space for connection, inspiration, and imagination.

But today, we’re facing one of the greatest challenges in our history.

An unexpected drop in funding, paired with rising operational costs, has created a critical financial shortfall. Without immediate support, we may be forced to scale back—or even pause—the essential programming that brings our community together.

The good news? Your donation will go twice as far.

Thanks to a generous $20,000 Matching Challenge Grant from Bas Bleu Mascot, Babette, every dollar you give will be matched, up to the first $20,000 raised. That means your impact is instantly doubled.

We’re asking for your help to raise the funds needed to:

Sustain our 2025–2026 season productions

Support the artists and teams who bring our shows to life

Cover crucial day-to-day operating expenses

Whether it’s $25, $250, or $2,500—every contribution counts and brings us closer to the stage lights shining again.

️ If you’ve ever laughed, cried, or left Bas Bleu with your heart full, now is the moment to give back.

Together, we can rise from this moment stronger, more vibrant, and more creative than ever before.

Donate today. Share widely. And be part of the next act at Bas Bleu.

❤️ Thank you for believing in the magic of live theatre.
