You helped make the Cherry’s first 10 years amazing.
And people noticed…
That’s right—Methuen Drama in London is celebrating the Cherry with a big new BOOK! Coming out in October, Global Theatre from the Cherry Collective features international plays the Cherry premiered, like Testosterone, George Kaplan, and last fall’s hit The Weight of Ants.
Who says a small-town arts org can’t make big work and impact the culture!
We’re so proud to make this announcement as we cap off an incredible 2025–26 season, filled with premiere performances, extraordinary exhibitions, and the launch of Cherry Music. And we couldn’t do any of it without the supporters who make it all possible!
This is your chance to help us write the next book.
Theater is ephemeral.
And we love what you tell us: Cherry plays make our adventurous audience laugh, and think—they move you, and they stretch you! And we love that. But we won’t lie: sometimes on closing night we wonder, does all this mean something beyond our ten square miles?
London says yes.
And we’re so grateful that you’ve been a part of it! As we look to our second decade, won’t you please give extra generously, to help us keep bringing fresh points of view from around the world to our wonderful Cherry community, right here in Ithaca!
