Due to the current Covid-19 pandemic, the Blackhorse Theatre had to fade the stage to black and postpone our current season and all 50th Anniversary celebrations indefinitely. Sadly, without revenue from ticket sales, the cost of maintaining and operating our building has been rapidly depleting our financial resources. During these unprecedented times, we find ourselves alone with no support from provincial or federal government relief. The Blackhorse has a history of being one of the only community theatres in Ontario that owns and operates it's own facility. The building and land was purchased 40 years ago, and The Blackhorse Village Players became a registered charitable organization. Since then, it has been self-sustaining by the volunteer membership comprised of talented people within your community. All proceeds from ticket sales are used for the operating expenses. Blackhorse has been a proud member of the community for 50 years and with your help, the theatre will continue entertaining for 50 more. With your generous support, it will ensure that the show will go on, and Blackhorse's future as a reliable source of entertainment for the communities of New Tecumseth, Caledon, King Township and the surrounding area. Thank you! All donations receive a tax receipt. ----------------------------------------------------------- Expenses for Overhead Costs Include: Property Taxes, Utilities, and Property Maintenance.
