TSF Alumni Campaign
In 2025, TSF will be celebrating 40 incredible seasons of bringing world-class theatre to East Texas. As part of this celebration, we are calling on our alumni of the Festival to give a special donation to help secure our future. If TSF played a role in your career, we invite you to give what you are able to give to honor your time spent in Kilgore. If a monetary gift is not an option for you, we invite you to share a memory. You can share by creating a video or writing a blurb and sending it to Christina Anderson at cca@andersonpartners.org This video was put together after interviewing some loyal TSF alums and company members.
