Presented in partnership with Kenny Leon's True ColorsTheatre in Atlanta, DOT starred Emmy Award-winner Denise Burse (Black Mirror, House of Payne) and served as the foundation for the cultivation of a national pipeline between two Black-led regional theaters to develop a cost-savings, high production quality, and shared audience-centric model. (28 performances in October and November 2018) 55120 A WALK INTO SLAVERY, written by Hollis King and Brooklyn artist Carl Hancock Rux and directed by Etwaroo, was presented in the round on a custom built art installment in The Billie's Community Studio Space, and incorporated original and historic photography and drawings, as well as recorded and live music by Brooklyn vocalist Marcelle Lashley-Davies. Our 12-show limited run received a tremendous reception from both audiences and critics. 42041 50/50 WOMEN: Letters to Our Daughters brought to the stage original stories from as far away as India, brought to life by an award-winning cast of actors that this year added Billie newcomers Jasmine Cephas Jones (Hamilton Original Cast), LaChanze (Tony Award winner), and Angelica Ross (Pose), to award-winning cast of returning actors Marsha Stephanie Blake (Orange is the New Black, The Merchant of Veniceon Broadway), Ebony JoAnn (Ma Raineys Black Bottomon Broadway, GrownUps), Terria Joseph (Empire,Autumnat The Billie), Celestine Rae (No More Mr. NiceGuy, Boardwalk Empire), Michele Shay (Seven Guitars, Raisin in the SunonBroadway), Phyllis Yvonne Stickney (How Stella Got Her Groove Back, The Women ofBrewster Place), and Pauletta Pearson Washington (She's Gotta Have It, The Old Settler,and Autumnat The Billie), with live music by Maritri Garrett. In addition to our two, sold-out, New York Premiers, we performed two sold-out shows with a West Coastcast at the newly launched WACO Theatre in Los Angeles, and have been contacted by theaters in Seattle and Florida about bringing the show to those communities as well.

Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely-that-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Accordingly, the company has not recorded any reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax provisions at June 30, 2019.
