Overview

Mission

Strike Theater is dedicated to building a community for original creative works in the Twin Cities.

What it reported doing in 2024

EDUCATION: In 2024 we developed and managed an improvisation program with a student base of over 150 individuals, offering a comprehensive and unique curriculum that catered to all skill levels, from beginner to advanced. We ensured accessibility by providing classes at affordable rates and creating volunteer opportunities for students with financial constraints. We spearheaded a student-focused performance initiative to provide valuable stage experience. We cultivated future educators by offering coaching opportunities for students interested in teaching, while ensuring that all instructors were fairly compensated for their services.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 69% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and liabilities are high compared with assets.
