Giving Opportunities for the Without Walls Festival

Your support brings art to life!

As a non-profit theatre company, La Jolla Playhouse relies on support from individuals, corporations, foundations, and the government to produce and present the WOW Festival. Without Walls productions are pieces created by artists that take place outside the confines of a traditional theatre.

Over four days, guests will interact with more than 20 thoughtfully curated pieces. Bringing high-caliber art to so many San Diegans takes extensive resources and planning. All of the 2023 festival productions will be free to the public.

In appreciation for your support, we will WOW you with a weekend filled with exciting performances, personalized hospitality, and access to the intimate creative process.
