Overview
Mission
We are a nonprofit after school theater program that teacher students how to sing, dance and act while putting on a quality musical theater performance. We focus on building confidence and working as a team as well as production value in our show. We want to offer excellent training to our students and help them grow in their musical theater skills. All proceeds from registration fees, ticket sales, and any other donation goes back to our program and shows. Our productions have been well received by the community and we aim to continue to produce quality family entertainment that our students can feel proud to be a part of. We strive to create a safe place for students to feel welcome and have a place where they can freely express themselves through theater arts in a supportive community.

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 program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
