“BUILDING ON THE LEGACY”

The Lee Deal & Friends Theatre Endowment financially supports the appearance of guest artists at annual, theatrically based enrichment events (e.g. seminars, lectures, workshops, master classes) through the UAHuntsville Theatre Program. Open to the entire North Alabama theatre community, these events will benefit both UAHuntsville students and the community at large.

Conceived, created, and supported by local community theatre organizations, theatre artists and The Arts Council, this unique Endowment promises to positively impact both local artists and audiences for decades to come by enriching and educating the entire theatre community.

The Endowment is named for Lee Deal, a former UAHuntsville student and local community theatre icon for nearly thirty years. Lee’s love of theatre inspired him to work with virtually every theatre group in our area.

Although his untimely death in May 2007 was the inspiration for the Endowment, it is not limited to Lee’s memory. Contributionsmay be made in honor or memory of anyone who has or continues to further local theatre as an artist or audience member.

The Lee Deal and Friends Theatre Endowment funds educational/enrichment opportunities for the entire local theatre community and serves as a living tribute to Lee, to all who came before him, to those currently active in the theatre community today, and to all those who will follow. In this way, the Endowment builds on the fine legacy of community theatre excellence that so many people have worked tirelessly to create in Huntsville/Madison County.

Your support of the valuable opportunities funded by the Lee Deal and Friends Theatre Endowment is greatly appreciated.
