DONATION CAMPAIGNS
Metra Living Ticket Donations
Flux's Living Ticket initiative requires no financial transaction to see our shows. However, we welcome Living Ticket donations to help us work toward paying artists a living wage.
We’re proud to say that METRA represents the first Flux production where all our contributors are making an hourly minimum wage (or equivalent fee), with 63% of the production budget going directly toward paying PEOPLE. This was a longtime goal for Flux, and we’re grateful to every foundation and individual donor who made it possible.
With the added costs that producing during a pandemic create, we are deeply grateful for any living ticket donation you can make. One way several audience members have chosen to think about their gift is the equivalent value of two hours of their own time.

Our Options Have Changed
Since early in the pandemic, Flux Creative Partners Corey Allen, Emily Hartford and Will Lowry have taken the lead on this interactive, phone-based, labyrinthine experience, OUR OPTIONS HAVE CHANGED. Now, finally, in June 2022, we're ready to share it with YOU.
This production continues our Living Ticket initiative, which makes Flux’s shows free for all to attend. Well, not exactly free: it costs a lot to create these productions, and we continue to build toward a living wage for our team. So while you don’t have to pay anything, we encourage you to support Flux with a donation. Check out our Open Book production budget to learn more about how your contribution can support this work.
In short:
$3 average donation covers our costs and helps ensure we can keep the project live
$6 helps us fully compensate the lead artists who have stewarded this project over the past 2 years
$9+ is an investment in future hybrid work from Flux!

Flux Theatre Ensemble
What does it mean for theatre to build a family? For us, it’s rooted in a process Creative Partner Jason Tseng named “creative kin-making.” Creative kin-making means investing in long-term collaborative relationships. It means disrupting exploitative systems to forge collective ways of sharing power. And it means expanding how we define theatre through an aesthetic of liberation, in which every artistic choice makes us more free. In 2023, we significantly grew our practice of creative kin-making.
Read about our 2023 year of experiments here.
Can you help us build on this momentum with an end-of-year tax deductible donation?
