Blow out the candles and blow in some warm air for TL

Special birthday fundraiser for TL Executive Director, Jamie Ulmer

Theatre Lawrence’s executive director, Jamie Ulmer, is turning the big 5-0! To mark half a century of theatrics and his fantastic two years at TL, we’re throwing a one-week-only birthday fundraiser.


Our goal: $5,000—enough to keep the hot air flowing… where it’s supposed to be! This winter, our HVAC system has been stealing the spotlight with some unexpected repairs. While Jamie might be full of hot air himself, even he can’t keep the theatre warm all by himself (we checked).


That’s where you come in! From January 29 to February 5 we’re asking you to donate and help us reach our goal. Every dollar ensures that TL remains cozy for all your favorite performances (and keeps Jamie from huffing and puffing into the vents).


Let’s turn up the heat, show Jamie some love, and make this a birthday he’ll never forget. Donate today and help us blow past $5,000!
