The option that is NOT typically a major expense for an amateur theatre is:

a) paying the performers

Amateur theatres often rely on volunteers or local talent who may not require payment or may be paid very little compared to professional productions. The other options listed (maintaining or renting a space, materials for sets and costumes, and lighting equipment and other technical materials) are more significant expenses associated with putting on a production.
