Our season began with the arrival of Circus Abyssinia: Ethiopian Dreams to the Twin Cities, a leading center of circus training as well as a center of East African migration. CTC commissioned longtime collaborator Greg Banks to create a two-actor adaptation of Snow White, which brings a surprising twist to the titular character's fate. Returning for the holiday season was our beloved production of Cinderella, starring brand new acting company member Rajan Katurah. January welcomed the new musical, Bob Marley's Three Little Birds, based on a book by the late musician's daughter, directed by Sha Cage. The season's second world premiere was Philip Dawkins' Spamtown, USA, a result of the playwright's interviews with people who lived through the 1985 Hormel strike in Austin, Minn. Responding to CDC guidelines, two productions, The Rainbow Fish and Annie, were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 506897 198908 CTC's Neighborhood Bridges programs served students and classroom teachers in grades pre-K-5 this year through in-depth school residencies; community residencies and workshops; and professional development opportunities for educators and caregivers. During the 2019-20 school year, Neighborhood Bridges continued a major expansion to incorporate 18 new Somali Muslim stories into its curriculum. To gather these stories Neighborhood Bridges staff and teaching artists are interviewing high school students who identify as Muslim at Minneapolis's Wellstone International High School, as well as participants in Augsburg University's East African Student to Teacher program. Through this new curriculum, we hope to give Muslim students the opportunity to see themselves and their community represented in the classroom. We also hope to provide non-Muslim students with deeper understanding of the Muslim American experience in the U.S., teaching empathy and challenging their assumptions.We also ensure that our work has impact beyond the individual classrooms served by training classroom teachers across the country in the philosophy and practice of Neighborhood Bridges, which emphasizes critical inquiry and cooperative learning. Neighborhood Bridges staff offered educators opportunities to learn more about Neighborhood Bridges pedagogy and strategy, with workshops focusing on Interactive Storytelling, Acting Out Stories from Familiar Books, Animating Critical Literacy, and more. Additionally, Neighborhood Bridges provided embedded professional development for classroom teachers to train them in using theatre arts-based and culturally responsive teaching strategies to support student language and literacy development.The Early Childhood Initiative served early learners and their caregivers in 2019-20 through our in-depth Early Bridges preschool program, Early Bridges residencies. We continued our Creative Play program, aimed at supporting the healthy development of young children who have experienced trauma and/or toxic stress through workshops led by CTC teaching artists. CTC delivered Creative Play workshops at People Serving People's Center of Excellence in Minneapolis, People Serving People's family-focused shelter in Downtown Minneapolis, the Greater Minneapolis Crisis Nursery, Way to Grow, and Northside Child Development Center. 498756 405145 CTC's Theatre Arts Training program (TAT) provides instruction in storytelling, acting, dance, voice, directing, and playwriting for young people ages 2-18. In addition to sequenced classes during the school year, Theatre Arts Training also offers summer and other school vacation camps for students at all skill levels and programming for homeschool groups designed to meet their educational goals TAT also includes the Pre-Professional Institute, which provides high school students with an intensive, four-year, conservatory-style learning experience. The Senior Company program provides students with demanding material that seeks to challenge them as artists, educate them in a professional setting, and inspire them to be active voices in their community. TAT has also expanded its reach in the community, ensuring more needs-based scholarships are available for all classes. TAT's Virtual Academy was launched in May 2020. This program offers online TAT classes for young people. Virtual Academy classes are tailored to the strengths of a digital creative experience with a blend of online and self-paced learning, group activities and individual coaching, independent creation, and opportunities for full family engagement. Students joined from 30 states and 3 countries for creativity, collaboration, and artistic exploration. A total of 137 young people registered for Virtual Academy classes in June 2020, including 10 in "Digital Performance: Pride." Students from across the country were inspired by LGBTQIAP+ history from Stonewall to the Supreme Court's June 2020 ruling protecting employees to create and share an original theatrical work. This was the first of many student-devised pieces to come over the course of the shutdown. 9146312 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1

Form 990, Part III, line 3 The coronavirus pandemic closed the Theatre venue on March 13, 2020 for public performances which significantly reduced the Theatre's ticket sales and other earned revenue during the year that ended June 30, 2020. The Theatre took immediate measures to reduce costs and to maintain adequate liquidity. The continuation of the spread of the virus has caused a rapidly changing business environment, unprecedented market volatility, and other circumstances that will continue to impact its business in future periods. The Theatre continues to monitor evolving economic, public health, and general business conditions to address the actual and potential impacts on its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Theatre has made significant reductions in operating expenses to reflect the inability to conduct live, in-person performances by eliminating non-essential spending where feasible. Before The Theater was forced to shutter the venue, 91,748 individuals attending the public performances came from 600 cities and towns in the Midwest and 76 out of 87 Minnesota counties. A total of 41,155 students and their teachers attending weekday matinee performances came from 129 cities and towns, mostly in Minnesota. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 1 The Executive Committee is empowered and authorized to act upon such matters as require action prior to the next regularly scheduled Board of Directors meeting and any such actions of the Executive Committee shall have the same force and effect as an action of the Board of Directors, with the exception that the Executive Committee shall not have the power to make or amend the Bylaws of the corporation, elect members to the Board of Directors, or to fill vacancies on the Executive Committee. If the Executive Committee exercises any of the general powers or duties of the Board of Directors, such action shall be presented to the Board of Directors at the next meeting for ratification by the full Board of Directors. The executive committee consists of all officers of the corporation who are also directors, the chairs of each committee, and any at-large directors the Board of Directors shall appoint from time to time. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b The Form 990 is reviewed by the Board Chair and Treasurer. It is presented at a Finance Committee meeting and approved. It is also electronically sent to the entire Board of Directors before it being filed. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c New employees receive the conflict of interest policy in their employee handbook. They are required to complete a form that acknowledges that they have read the policies and understand them. The size of the organization also lends itself to quick recognition of situations where a conflict of interest may arise. Each board member completes an annual related party questionnaire as part of the audit process and discloses any conflicts of interest they may have. In the exercise of any voting rights, whether as a member of the Board of Directors, an officer, or in any other capacity relating to this corporation, no individual shall vote on any issue, motion, resolution or any other item whatsoever which directly or indirectly inures to the benefit of such individual ("Interested Party"); provided, however, that except as otherwise determined from time to time by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors, not including the Interested Party, the Interested Party may participate in a discussion of such issue, motion, resolution, or item at any meeting of the members of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, if the Interested Party first makes a full and adequate disclosure of all material facts concerning the nature of the Interested Party's interest to the meeting at which the discussion is occurring and to the Chair of the Board of Directors, the Artistic Director and the Managing Director. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 The Board of Directors issues the contracts for the Artistic Director and the Managing Director.
