If you pay by check, please indicate in the memo field the name of the person and if the gift is in honor or memory.

Individual Retirement Account (IRA)
If you are older than 70½ years of age and have a traditional Individual Retirement Account, you have the option to lower your income tax bill for 2022 by transferring your required minimum distribution to the Westport Country Playhouse. This type of gift can be omitted from your taxable income and earn you playhouse membership benefits — even if you don’t itemize deductions on your tax return! Contact Catherine MacKay at 203-571-1291 or cmackay@westportplayhouse.org, or ask your IRA agent for more information about making a Qualified Charitable Distribution.
