Lightning Rod Special is on the rise! 

After winning the Wolfson Award for an Evolving Theater Company at the Philadelphia Barrymore Awards, our newest work, The Appointment, was named BEST THEATER OF 2019 by the New York Times. It was also named a New York Times and Time Out New York Critics’ Pick. 

If you would like to secure the future of Lightning Rod Special, we urge you to become a sustaining donor. Sustaining donors make a monthly contribution at the size of their choosing. Tax-deductible donations can be made through our fiscal sponsor, Fractured Atlas. Click the button above, set your contribution level, and rest easy knowing that we’ll be able to make our boundary-pushing performance works.


Would you like to volunteer with LRS? Support comes in many forms, and not everyone can donate money. If you can contribute time, expertise, or resources, contact us!
