Join us for The Rep's annual Holiday Benefit - our signature winter celebration that brings together community, artistry, and holiday spirit in support of The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis. Over the past two years, this unforgettable event has welcomed 1,500+ guests and special appearances from St. Louis legends, including St. Louisians, John Goodman in 2023, and Sean Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy, Gilmore Girls) and jazz icon Denise Thimes in 2024. This year, we're embracing the theme Home for the Holidays, a heartfelt tribute to the power of theatre to bring people together. While our 2025 guest talent has yet to be announced, we promise another incredible evening filled with festive performances, one-of-a-kind auction experiences, delicious food and beverages, and inspiring moments from The Rep's stage.
