Wildfire Recovery Fund

The burned landscape below the buttes of Fort Robinson State Park after the South Fork Fire

The week of June 8, 2026, wildfire temporarily disrupted our season at Fort Robinson State Park.

Our entire company was safely evacuated, and thanks to firefighters and emergency crews, the historic fort and surrounding area were protected. We are deeply grateful.

While Fort Robinson has reopened, the start of our season was significantly impacted—three performances were cancelled, emergency expenses were incurred, and attendance has been affected during a critical time for our nonprofit theatre.

Post Playhouse depends on ticket sales and community support to bring professional theatre to the Nebraska Panhandle each summer.

We are launching a Wildfire Recovery Fund with a goal of $45,000 to help us recover and sustain the remainder of the season.

Your gift will cover emergency costs, help support our artists and staff, and keep professional theatre thriving at Fort Robinson.

If Post Playhouse has ever been part of your Fort Robinson story, we hope you’ll consider making a gift today.

Wildfire may have interrupted our season, but it did not end it.

If you’d like to make a donation to help with the Wildfire Recovery Fund, write “Wildfire Recovery Fund” in the “Anything you’d like us to know” text field on the donation form. Thank you for your support!
