Take Your Seat in the Story
We will be installing new seats in the theatre over the Thanksgiving break. Hurrah!
This Thanksgiving, North Coast Rep will welcome audiences back to a theatre filled with brand-new seats. To celebrate this exciting improvement, we are launching a Seat Naming Campaign—an opportunity to place your name, honor someone special, remember a loved one, or express your love for North Coast Rep on a personalized plaque affixed to one of our new seats.
Naming a seat is a meaningful way to become part of the theatre’s story while supporting the exceptional artists and compelling productions that bring our intimate stage to life. Whether you are celebrating years of shared performances, recognizing someone who loves the theatre, or creating a lasting family tribute, your inscription will represent a special connection to North Coast Rep.
Seat-naming opportunities are available at several giving levels, based on location, and gifts may be paid in full or divided into installments over three years. Naming a seat does not reserve that seat for performances, but it does create a lasting presence in the theatre—and a wonderful reminder that every story we tell begins with people like you.
For more information or to reserve your seat, please contact Marisa Kikis (858) 481-2155 ext. 224 or marisa@northcoastrep.org.

Seat Naming Information
Seat Naming Recognition
A seat naming gift provides recognition through a personalized plaque affixed to a designated theatre seat. Naming recognition does not convey ownership of the seat, nor does it include tickets, reserved seating rights, priority access, or the right to occupy the named seat for performances.
Seat Selection and Availability
Seat naming opportunities are available at designated giving levels based on seat location and are offered on a first-come, first-served basis. North Coast Rep will make every effort to accommodate a donor’s preferred available seat; however, final seat assignment is subject to availability and approval by the Theatre.
Term of Recognition
Naming recognition will remain in place for the useful life of the seat while that seat remains in service at North Coast Repertory Theatre, subject to the provisions below.
Changes to the Theatre or Seating Configuration
North Coast Rep reserves the right to replace, relocate, renumber, remove, or reconfigure theatre seating when necessary due to renovation, maintenance, safety, accessibility, operational needs, or other circumstances.
Should North Coast Rep relocate to another venue, the Theatre will make reasonable efforts to transfer the donor’s recognition to a comparable seat or other appropriate recognition opportunity. A specific seat number, row, section, or location cannot be guaranteed following a relocation or substantial reconfiguration.
Plaque Inscription
Seats may be named for an individual, couple, family, organization, or in honor or memory of someone special. All inscriptions are subject to space limitations, formatting requirements, and final approval by North Coast Rep.
North Coast Rep reserves the right to decline wording that is commercial, promotional, political, offensive, misleading, or otherwise inconsistent with the Theatre’s mission or values.
A proof of the inscription will be provided for donor approval before the plaque is produced. Once approved and installed, any requested changes may be subject to replacement and installation costs.
Payment and Gift Commitment
A seat naming opportunity is considered confirmed upon receipt of full payment or upon approval of a written pledge agreement by North Coast Rep. Payment schedules, if offered, must be completed within the agreed-upon timeframe.
Seat naming gifts are charitable contributions to North Coast Repertory Theatre and are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. Donors should consult their tax advisor regarding individual circumstances.
Refunds and Transfers
Once a seat naming gift has been accepted and the naming recognition confirmed, the gift is generally nonrefundable and may not be transferred to another individual or organization without the written approval of North Coast Rep.
Theatre Discretion
North Coast Rep reserves the right to modify or remove recognition in extraordinary circumstances, including situations in which continued recognition could reasonably be considered damaging to the reputation, mission, charitable purpose, or best interests of the Theatre.
