Cost Of Running A Theatre

Cost Of Running A Theatre

The Legalese 

MYACT is a 501(c)3 organization formed for public purposes, to foster educational opportunities for children and adults of all ages in the performing arts, with a specific focus on theater, music, dance, voice and other arts.

The Practical Benefits 

MYACT provides opportunities for children, youth and adults in our community to become involved in the arts. Our organization brings people together in enriching classes, recitals and full performances. Our flagship program, Summer Hideout, started in 2004 with 13 students. Since then over 500 youth and adults have participated in various programs and productions. During that same time over 5000 audience members have experienced and enjoyed MYACT community musical theatre productions.

Some History

In 2012, after eight years of using temporary rehearsal spaces and renting various auditoriums for performances, MYACT acquired a warehouse building on Cuesta Court in Sonora (off Tuolumne Road) and turned it into permanent rehearsal, learning, and performance space.

MYACT generally produces four shows per year and would like to increase that number to provide additional opportunities – for youth and adult participants – and to establish a greater presence in the community.

The Cost of Running a Theatre

It takes money to run a theatre and related programs. MYACT’s annual operating expenses range from $25,000 to $30,000 per year. Approximately 80% of the funds to pay those expenses come from ticket sales, summer camp tuition, and sales of concessions.

However, MYACT relies heavily on donations, fund raisers and grants to fund the balance of annual expenses.

Over the years, the community has generously supported us but like any non-profit organization we are constantly in need of more donations, especially as we expand the operation to greater levels.  

Estimated 2019 Expenses

Rent & Utilities $14, 400 
Show Rights $8,000
Set Materials $2,500
Costumes $1,500
Ongoing Theatre Maintenance (Paint touch ups, equipment repair, basic supplies, etc.) $2,000
Liability Insurance $4,200
Paid positions and or stipends vary based on the production.  As an example, the Summer Camp stipends run up to $2,000.  
 
If you made it this far down this article then perhaps you would consider a donation or sponsorship.   In most cases (please check with your tax accountant) donations and sponsorships are tax deductible.
