Donate to JM Drama and The Registry Theatre

The Registry Theatre is home to JM Drama, the not-for-profit theatre company that operates the venue on behalf of the City of Kitchener. Donations help us offer an affordable space for community groups and individuals and support new and experimental work that may not fit larger venues.

Financial contributions may be directed toward venue operations, community productions or specific initiatives approved by the board. Tax receipt information and full donation details are managed through our official Registry Theatre donation page.
