Friends of Forte
Some call them season sponsors, some call them sustaining donors, we call them Friends. Friends of Forte are the individuals and families who are the lifeblood of Forte Theatre Company. They are an integral partner in our mission to bring quality, professional theatre and theatre education to Milwaukee's southwest suburbs.
