Be A Light main website header 

Sponsor a Lantern in Center REP’s all new production of A CHRISTMAS CAROL and help support Arts Access for students with free and steeply discounted tickets.

Our all new production of A CHRISTMAS CAROL begins with young Tim Cratchit making a wish on a candle that is magically whisked through all of street lanterns of London, illuminating the magical world of Charles Dickens’ A CHRISTMAS CAROL. By sponsoring a Lantern, you are literally lighting this world, while shining the way to a thrilling theatrical experience for young people who need it most.

Your donation of $1,000 through our non-profit partner Diablo Regional Arts Association (DRAA) will provide vital support for the dozens of lanterns that populate the set of A CHRISTMAS CAROL. Your gift will also support Center REP’s Student Matinee performances, including our partnership with DRAA for the Arts Access program for Title I schools, reaching students with little or no access to the arts.
