Overview

Mission

To produce theatre with people impacted by incarceration

What it reported doing in 2024

In 2024, Ally Theatre produced theatre workshops, conducted trainings, theatrical seminars, and held interactive performances with 762 audience members. Ally worked with 28 participants and gave them a platform to explore and share their stories, learn skills for reentry and jobs, and help affect change in the criminal legal system.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 82% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
