Arena Stage
About the Client
Arena Stage at the Mead Center for America Theater is a flagship American theater located near The Wharf in Washington, D.C. As the largest company in the U.S. solely committed to American playwrights and plays, it is considered a national center dedicated to American voices and some of the best artists around the country.
Challenge

SOLUTION
Arena Stage is one of DC’s best kept secrets, but has a loyal and passionate following among those who have experienced a performance at the history theater. We proposed and executed a multi-channel, digital-first campaign called “IYKYK” (If You Know, You Know) that capitalized on this passion, with the goal of creating a feeling of exclusivity for those in-the-know, and FOMO (fear of missing out) for those who aren’t.
The campaign’s central mission was to establish a strong and lasting digital presence for Arena Stage while engaging a wider audience.
By employing content-driven strategies, leveraging social media, regional influencers and content creators, as well as harnessing available data, our goal was to extend the campaign’s reach beyond the traditional theater experience.
