Support Us - Premiere Stages

Premiere Stages programming would not be possible without the generous support of our patrons and foundational sponsors. Whether it’s helping to make a playwright’s dreams come true, introducing a child to the magic of theatre, or launching the career of an aspiring theatre artist, your contribution ensures that Premiere Stages will remain New Jersey’s foremost supporters of new play development.

PLAY FESTIVAL (PLAY DEVELOPMENT)

Your gift to the Play Festival will support new play development right here in New Jersey and the greater metropolitan area. In just thirteen seasons, Premiere has developed and produced over 60 new plays by more than 55 playwrights at various stages of their professional careers through our annual Play Festival competition and various commissions. Plays developed at Premiere have gone on to be published, win awards, and receive subsequent productions at prominent theatres across the country.

PLAY FACTORY (EDUCATION)

Your gift to the Play Factory will give hundreds of students of all ages access to the arts through in-school and after-school residencies, community workshops, and our summer theatre camp. Our programs are designed to introduce students to theatre, enhance academic curricula through playwriting, teach creative expression to community groups, and preserve memories through storytelling workshops for senior citizens. Contributions also make it possible to offer affordable productions specifically for young audiences and discounted tickets for students to our mainstage performances.

PREMIERE ARTISTS (TRAINING)

Your gift to Premiere Artists will support the next generation of theatre artists through professional development opportunities, including our summer internship program, the Kean Actors Showcase, and masterclasses with industry professionals. Through these programs, young professionals are able to earn credit toward union affiliation in Actors’ Equity Association.

Premiere Stages donors receive perks including invitations to exclusive parties and events, reserved seats, and recognition in our playbills.

Because of patrons like you, our programming is accessible to a diverse community and each initiative truly makes a difference. Thank you! For further details about supporting Premiere Stages, our various inner circle benefits, joining the Ambassador Committee, or our annual Benefit, please contact us at 908-737-4092.

Social Media Community Guidelines

The Kean University Foundation manages several social media channels. Through these channels, we aim to facilitate supportive conversations and share informative, engaging content. But please note—if you post to one of our social media channels, send us messages, reply to our tweets or comment on any of our posts, you are agreeing to follow and adhere to these Social Media Community Guidelines.

Additionally, please remember that the comments and responses you read on our channels from other community members come from them, not us. The content of other peoples’ comments, opinions and statements, even if they’re posted on our channels, do not necessarily reflect our views—they are the responsibility of the members of the public who choose to post them.

In order to help us keep our Kean University Foundation and Kean Alumni social media channels as supportive places to discuss shared topics of interest, please abide by the following Social Media Community Guidelines:

Be Respectful
1. Respect is a core part of being a Kean Cougar. Although we welcome your comments and feedback, you must take the responsibility to share both in a way that is respectful to Kean University, our team members and our overall community.
2. We will not tolerate comments, replies, messages or posts that are inappropriate, harassing in nature, or otherwise abusive.
3. We do not welcome comments, replies, messages or posts that are promoting or soliciting a third-party site. This includes third-party products and initiatives.
4. Social media is not the proper forum to send us feedback about our services. Please email kuf@keanfoundation.org for help with those topics.
5. We reserve the right to remove comments/replies/message that do not adhere to our policies, or any content that we believe does not comply.
6. We reserve the right to block or ban anyone who violates our policies.

Comment Moderation and Responses
1. We monitor our social media channels on weekdays, during normal business hours. We try to respond as soon as we are able.
2. Although we are moderating our social media channels to ensure that those commenting are complying with our guidelines, we are not responsible for anything posted by members of the public.

Your Posts May Become Our Future Content
1. When tagging us on social media platforms, please keep in mind that you are consenting to us potentially resharing your content in the future as User Generated Content. By posting on our channels and tagging us in your content, you agree that your posts may be freely used by us on our social media channels, and possibly on our website or in our newsletter.
  1. Knowing this, please do not post any information that you prefer to keep confidential.
  2. Do not share any information from which you expect to receive compensation.
2. When you post on or interact with any of our social media channels, remember that your name, likeness and social media handle will be visible to us and associated with your post/reply/message. If we reshare or use your post/reply/message elsewhere, we may display your name, likeness and social media handle when we do so.
