Support Yaroque

Your gift is tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

Contemporary dance is not free. Dramatic lighting is not free. Costumes are not free. Rehearsal space in New York is definitely not free. Yaroque Dance Theatre is a Brooklyn-based company founded by Shelby Green, creating bold, high-concept, high-camp performance work that blends emotional vulnerability, comedy, theatricality, and the occasional existential crisis. We make work that is ambitious, strange, heartfelt, excessive, and alive — because frankly, subtlety is not always the assignment. Your donation helps support the very real costs behind the spectacle: artist pay, rehearsal space, costumes, production expenses, administrative labor, and the creation of new work. Every gift helps us continue building performances that are daring, entertaining, emotionally rich, and made with deep care for the artists who bring them to life. In other words: your support helps transform big feelings, bizarre visions, and well-dressed chaos into actual live performance. If you believe in supporting adventurous art, committed artists, and a healthy amount of theatrical audacity, we would be so grateful for your contribution. Thank you for helping Yaroque keep making dance that is heartfelt, high-stakes, and just a little unhinged.
