The Drawing Room Players, an exclusive group of Le Petit Theatre’s highest-level supporters, is named for the original group who founded Le Petit in 1916. Drawing Room Players enjoy season tickets to each Mainstage Production, invitations to opening night festivities, and opportunities throughout the season for behind-the-scenes tours, special events at private homes, and much more.
Participation in the Drawing Room Players is an investment in continuing Le Petit’s powerful legacy and guarantees that future generations of New Orleanians can witness the profound impact of theatre in our historic space. Your gift, which is partially tax deductible, will allow us to create new works, engage exciting artists, and present outstanding theatre. We would be honored to have you join us!
