Your Generosity Matters
The Folly Theater has seen it all – vaudeville, jazz legends, Broadway stars, and unforgettable moments on stage. Through it all, she’s remained timeless, thanks to supporters like you.
As we celebrate 125 years, we’re reflecting on the stories, the music, and the magic that make that Folly a Kansas City treasure. And guess what? She’s still looking good – because of YOU!
Every polished seat, every shining light, every breathtaking performance happens because of our community’s generosity.
Support the Folly experience today. Your generosity will ensure the Folly’s intimate performances are available to audiences now and for years to come. Please give generously. Your tax-deductible contribution will help maintain the Folly for future generations to enjoy.
Consider being a monthly donor! A recurring gift of $10, $20, $50, $100, or another amount helps maintain our historic building and create performance memories year-round! Want more information? Contact Brian Williams at 816-768-6886 or brian@follytheater.org.
Arts supporters: Put your name down in history! Announcing the Folly’s Seat Naming Campaign! As a part of our endowment efforts, which has surpassed $2.5 million thus far, this initiative allows individuals and companies to write their name down in history (and metal) and show their support of the Folly Theater and the growth of the arts in Kansas City. We have a bit to go to reach our second phase goal of five million dollars, but that can be done with your support!
A Folly Theater seat, inscribed with your name, a loved one’s name, your business, or in memoriam, creates a lasting legacy. Your tax-deductible contribution to name a seat will be celebrated by family, friends, peers, and the community. Most importantly, your contribution ensures the sustainability of the Folly to serve many generations yet to come.
Ready to put your name down in Kansas City history as a pillar of society? Give us a call! Reach out to Brian Williams, Director of Development, by phone at 816-768-6886 ext. 102 or email him. He will gladly walk you through the process, your options, and even tour the seats with you so you know where your seat will sit in history.

The Folly Theater’s legacy is only possible through the generous donations of our donors and patrons.
