A Call, Not a Tier
The Wayward Artist invites a small circle of twelve people who understand the company for what it truly is: a ministry of story, courage, and community.
If the work has ever felt sacred—if theatre has shown you how it lifts the marginalized, brings the unseen into the light, and restores hope where it has been worn thin—then you are invited to consider becoming part of The Wayward Twelve.
This is not a donor level.
It is a relationship.
Why The Wayward Twelve Exists
The Wayward Twelve exists to sustain the heart of the mission:
- To be the artistic home for the Wayward Artist — the lost, the naked, the vulnerable
- To produce work that is new, bold, and reimagined
- To transform a wayward world
This circle ensures that the most courageous stories can be told—without compromise, without fear, and without dilution.
What It Means to Belong
Membership in The Wayward Twelve represents a $2,000 annual pledge and a personal commitment to the vision, the artists, and the community that make this work possible.
Your support at this level is more than generosity.
It is shared stewardship.
You become part of the creative heartbeat that keeps The Wayward Artist alive.
The Experience of The Wayward Twelve
Members of The Wayward Twelve receive:
- Two private meals each year with Founding Artistic Director Craig Tyrl
- Two complimentary tickets to every production
- Two complimentary tickets to the annual Holiday Gala
- Exclusive invitations to sit in on auditions and rehearsals
- A surprise gift delivered to your home
- Guaranteed front-row seating at every event
- A voice in season selection
- Special recognition in every playbill
- An annual spiritual and theatrical gathering of The Wayward Twelve to reflect on the season, the stories told, and the work still ahead
These moments are designed to deepen relationship—not privilege.
A Circle, Not a Crowd
The Wayward Twelve is intentionally limited.
There are only twelve places at the table.
Each voice matters.
Each relationship is known.
Each commitment is held with care.
