Overview

Mission

Community Theatre

What it reported doing in 2025

A Musical Revue was presented at the Wheat Ridge Active Adult Center on July 19 2025. Four board members and four other members of the community theatre volunteered to perform music from classical and modern Broadway play to benefit the Elemenntal Theatre company. The fundraiser generated a net profit of $1,981 for the theatre company with approximately 70 guests in attendance.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
