One night. One room (ok, two, if you count the outdoor dinner before the performance). The best of Greasepaint — past, present, and future.
Gala season is officially here, and this year’s celebration is shaping up to be one of our most meaningful (and most fun) yet. The Greasepaint Gala isn’t just an event — it’s the night we come together to celebrate our performers, our families, and everything this community makes possible.

🎓 We honor our graduating Seniors and the impact they’ve made on this community
🍽 You enjoy great food, drinks, activities, and exciting auction and giving moments
💙 You feel, in real time, what makes Greasepaint more than just a theatre
