Friends of Kali

Great art doesn't happen by accident. It happens because someone buys a writer a coffee, covers their travel, or gives them a day to focus. It happens because people like you believe in the stories that need to be told.

Becoming a Friend of Kali means you are part of that story. You're in the room with us - cheering on the writers, the actors, and the worlds we're building, and the audiences we're reaching.

£1,102.40 – commissions a new play under 10 minutes
£3,790.05 – commissions a new play under 30 minutes
£7,577.62 – commissions a writer to write a play of less than 70 minutes
£11,380.08 – commissions a writer to write a full-length play (70+ minutes)

If you're interested in becoming a Patron for Life, or would like to discuss a larger commitment, please get in touch. We'd love to talk with you about the difference your support could make.

An elderly woman dressed in colorful traditional Indian attire, including a green blouse and red sari with gold patterns, is smiling and holding a decorated silk pouch or bag. She has a flower garland in her hair, earrings, and a bindi on her forehead. She is standing in a dimly lit room with stage lights, with a small table with a white lamp and a remote or device on it.
