“EST constantly strives to be better and to better the state of the american theatre”

Bob Jaffe*
Ensemble Artist & Chair Emeritus of the Board of Directors

A charitable bequest made through your will or retirement account is one of the simplest ways that you can help Ensemble Studio Theatre continue to develop and produce new voices, new works, and new perspectives, and to share that work with thousands of audience members each season.  A legacy gift enables you to establish a future gift that provides game changing support for our work, while reserving tax benefits for you or your estate. Join us to ensure a robust future for EST. 

From our artists to you: thank you. For over 55 years, EST has been an artistic home for hundreds of playwrights, directors, actors, and designers thanks to the generosity of supporters like you. Please consider securing this legacy by making a planned gift to support EST.

Legacy gifts can take the form of bequests; charitable remainder or lead trusts; gifts of securities or real estate; retirement assets; endowed gifts; IRA charitable distributions; and more.

Update copy at bottom: EST's correct legal designation is: Ensemble Studio Theatre, Inc., Federal Tax ID number 23-7150345. For more information about any of these options contact Richard Mayer, Development Director, at mayer@estnyc.org.
