Donate to National Pastime Theatre The National Pastime Theater Ensemble survives on the kindness of strangers. Many of our patrons are strange and therefore quite kind. NPT welcomes donations that help to meet the production expenses that ticket sales cannot cover. You may send monetary contributions to: The New National Pastime Theater 941 W. Lawrence Ave. Chicago, IL 60640. or you may contact us via email at nationalpastime@sbcglobal.net to inquire about specific needs of the theater or make a credit card donation. NPT will gladly complete paperwork for matching gift programs. We are also in need of various equipment- office and theatrical in nature. If you would like to donate some items, please contact us for a list of what's needed. As a 501(c)3 Not-for-Profit Charitable organization, all gifts are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. The National Pastime Theater Ensemble acknowledges all gifts with a letter recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as an appropriate record for charitable donations.
