It's Christmas in July! The Children's Theater of Cincinnati hit a $30 million dollar milestone in its campaign to restore Emery Theater and make it the MainStage home for future seasons thanks to an anonymous donor's gift of $1.5 million dollars and a donation from Hip-Hop legend, Ludacris!

TCT Cincinnati Receives Anonymous $1.5 Million Gift Pushing Emery Campaign to $30 Million

A gift of $1.5 million from an anonymous donor has powered The Children’s Theater of Cincinnati (TCT) to the $30 million milestone in its A Crown for the Queen City campaign to ensure its future as a premiere arts organization in the region and expand its innovative programming.
 
TCT launched its $48 million fundraising campaign to reimagine and restore the landmark Emery Theater as its permanent MainStage home and create a state-of-the-art venue unlike any in the region. Campaign chair Allison Kropp expressed her excitement and appreciation for this significant contribution to that effort.

"I'm drawn to the Children's Theatre's project in Cincinnati because of the plans to develop new works that hit on the topics that matter to kids today,” Bridges said. “The Emery project signals an incredible opportunity for more children to access the arts and see themselves in what happens on stage. As a father of four daughters and a philanthropist who's constantly investing in the next generation, I'm honored to be a part of this."
​


​After the completion of fundraising and construction, The Children's Theatre plans to open the Emery in Fall 2025 with its 2025-2026 MainStage season.
