With a goal of $10,000, this fund will honor our friend and founding member, Rick Malone, by providing stipends for young professional designers and technicians, bringing professional mentors to The Classic, and funding technical equipment and advances for the next 5 years.

“To honor Rick’s fifty plus years in technical theater, the last fourteen of which have been with Classic, it’s only fitting that his legacy is to promote the theatrical design arts through a fund to support emerging theatrical designers, students of technical theater, and state of the art equipment for the next generation of designers and technicians at Classic Theatre of San Antonio.”

- Diane Malone, Classic Theatre Co-Founder

“Shortly after Rick’s passing, supporters began to ask for ways to memorialize him as a beloved member of our theater community. The generosity and artistry of both Rick and Diane Malone, two of our hardest-working founders, is recognized by this fund. It is an opportunity to remember Papa Rick and to assist Classic in continuing to strive for professionalism and innovation. Together with our fond memories of a great man, this fund will help to ensure that Rick Malone's presence is continually felt at Classic Theatre and reflected in the quality of our productions.”

 - Jimmy Moore, Classic Theatre Executive & Artistic Director

Thank you for remembering “Papa Rick,” a good friend and great San Antonio artist, by contributing to “The Malone Fund,” and for helping us to guarantee technical excellence at the theatre the Malones have been so instrumental in creating.
