FUNDRAISERS & BENEFITS

Bring People Together. Advance Your Mission. Create an Event They’ll Remember.  Improv Playhouse® has hosted fundraisers for nonprofit organizations, schools, community groups, and other causes.  We understand that a successful benefit must do more than fill a room—it must engage guests, communicate the mission, and create an experience people are glad to support.  Host your fundraiser at Improv Playhouse in downtown Libertyville, or bring our entertainment and production resources to another location.

FUNDRAISING EXPERIENCES BUILT AROUND YOUR ORGANIZATION

Every organization has a different audience, mission, and financial objective. We can help shape an event around the experience you want to create rather than forcing your cause into a predetermined package.

Possible fundraiser formats include:

  • Ticketed improv or stand-up comedy performances
  • Interactive murder mysteries
  • Comedy cabarets
  • Benefit receptions and catered gatherings
  • Auctions, raffles, and recognition programs
  • Organizational presentations and storytelling
  • Video presentations and mission-focused montages
  • Private or publicly promoted benefit events

VENUE, ENTERTAINMENT & PRODUCTION

Depending upon your needs, Improv Playhouse can provide the venue, entertainment, event-production support, or a combination of services.

Available resources may include:

  • Flexible event and reception areas
  • Catering-friendly accommodations
  • Professional performers and customized entertainment
  • Microphones, sound systems, and visual-presentation support
  • On-site technical personnel
  • Custom video, voice-over, and presentation production

WHY ENTERTAINMENT HELPS

A strong entertainment component can give supporters a reason to purchase tickets, invite friends, remain engaged throughout the program, and associate the organization with a memorable evening.  The event remains centered upon your mission; the entertainment helps carry people into it.

START WITH THE PURPOSE

Tell us about your organization, cause, audience, fundraising format, expected attendance, and available budget.  We will help identify an event approach that supports both the mission and the guest experience.
