Overview

Mission

Tucked away in the old Archive Building in Greenwich Village, IRTs mission is to build a community of emerging and established artists by creating a home for the development and presentation of new work. IRT supports independent artists through our Artist in Residency Program, and we provide access for Deaf and hard of hearing communities through our ASL Creative Department. ASL Creative provides professional arts opportunities for Deaf and hearing artists to collaborate in creating new work produced by IRT Theater. ASL Creatives education program, Westside Experiment, pairs Deaf and hearing students with a working theater company to educate young artists on how to create theater collaboratively.

What it reported doing in 2024

3B Development Series

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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 and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Expenses are high relative to revenue and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
