ViDCo (Virtual Design Collective) Virtual Media Design and Management

ViDCo is a collection of designers innovating new ways to tell stories and create communities online. Using virtual platforms, ViDCo generates entirely live performances with heightened design elements that bridges Theatre, TV, and cinema tricks into a new online hybrid form. We strategize to use the strongest elements of every discipline to inspire the artistic community to use their tools while we provide them the platforms to tell their stories. We are turning COVID around...literally.

Dubbed one of “America’s Best Regional Theatres,” PlayMakers Repertory Company is North Carolina’s premier professional theatre company. Founded in 1976, PlayMakers continues a proud 100-year tradition of playmaking at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Our mission is to produce relevant, courageous work that tells stories from and for a multiplicity of perspectives. We believe that theatre can have a transformational impact on individuals and entire communities, and we are committed making our work accessible to all.

Each season, PlayMakers brings new and classic works to more than 50,000 audience members at our home, the Joan H. Gillings Center for Dramatic Art. Our engagement programs have served over 150,000 Triangle area youth since 1984 through Student Matinees, teaching-artist-in-residency programs, our Summer Youth Conservatory, and PlayMakers Mobile touring production.

Special events like tonight’s benefit reading of Love, Loss, and What I Wore help raise critical funding for our theatre. The arts industry is uniquely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and PlayMakers is no exception. Though we are currently offering a virtual production season, revenue from ticket sales is

significantly decreased compared to past seasons. As a nonprofit professional theatre, we rely on generosity from our community to help close the gap.

PlayMakers has a goal to raise $1.5 million this year that will ensure that we can keep producing innovating, world class theatrical experiences, employing the amazing artists and staff who make these experiences happen, and serving our community and audiences across the country. We hope you will consider supporting PlayMakers with a tax-deductible donation today. With your help, we can Keep PlayMakers Playing for many seasons to come and emerge from this crisis strong.

Thank you for supporting PlayMakers Repertory Company!

Proceeds from the evening’s performance benefit PlayMakers on-going operations, including our 20/21 season, education, and community engagement programs.
