      <Desc>The Organization produced a six play season in both Juneau and Anchorage, including a world premiere by an Alaska Native Playwright in addition to beloved classics like A Christmas Carol, Cyrano De Begerac, and Steel Magnolias. Education programs were offered in both cities with Juneau programs including the Summer Theatre Arts Rendezvous (STAR), Young Company productions, and Black Box productions in conjunction with the University of Alaska Southeast. A Spring Break Camp took place in both cities. Three interns were with the organization throughout the season working and learning in a variety of departments. Perseverance continues to have playwrights under commission and to staff multiple full time artists as actors, playwrights, directors, and producers.</Desc>

        <ExplanationTxt>The Theatre is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Theatre is exempt from state income taxes under the Alaska Nonprofit Corporation Act. Therefore, the accompanying statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes. It is the Theatres policy to include interest and penalties (if any) in income tax expense. With few exceptions the Theatre is no longer subject to examination by Federal and state tax authorities for years before 2015.Although the Theatre is exempt from federal and state income taxes, any income derived from unrelated business activities is subject to the requirement of filing Federal Income Tax Form 990-T and a tax liability may be determined on these activities. There were no unrelated business activities during 2018 and 2017.Perseverance Theatre applies the provisions of Topic 740 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification relating to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The Organization believes that it has no uncertain tax positions which would require disclosure of adjustment in these financial statements.</ExplanationTxt>
