Redwood City's Dragon Productions Theatre Company said in an email on Sunday, March 15, that it is suspending current productions.

The company will also update patrons regularly via social media to keep them informed on the status of other programs. Reflecting the harsh reality for many local arts organizations, the company is also asking for donations via Facebook.com. "On April 1, we will pay our rent of about $12,000 to have a theatre when this has blown over, and our staff will pay their rents and mortgages on their homes. We realize everyone is worried, or already getting ready for a financial struggle with what is happening right now, but any financial gifts you are able to make at this time will make a world of difference towards our odds of survival, and we promise, as always to put your support right back to supporting our local community of brilliant artists help us get through this difficult time," the email states.
