Overview

Mission

Open Door Theater of Acton is a non-profit, accessible community theater company that has been creating learning experiences through theater for adults and children with and without disabilities since it was founded in 1980. The Open Door philosophy is that when you offer a positive theater experience, with an integrated, inclusive mix of people, they learn a lot about themselves and how to get along with and support each other.

What it reported doing in 2024

Open Door Theater produced the show "The Prom: School Edition". The Production included 58 performers, with 69% self identifying as Disabled. The production also included 150 volunteer crew members. Ticket revenue is the main source of income for this program and it was $32586 for this year.

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

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
