THE MISSION OF THE GEFFEN PLAYHOUSE IS TO ENRICH THE CULTURAL LIFE OF GREATER LOS ANGELES AND THE UCLA COMMUNITY THROUGH PLAYS AND EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS THAT INFORM, ENTERTAIN AND INSPIRE OTHERS TO HELP MEET ITS MISSION. THE GEFFEN FOSTERS AN ACTIVE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LOS ANGELES ENTERTAINMENT AND OFFERS A SUPPORTIVE, INVITING ENVIRONMENT FOR ARTISTS AND THEATER PROFESSIONALS. LAUNCHED IN 1994, THE GEFFEN PLAYHOUSE BLOSSOMED FROM A WESTSIDE PRESENTING HOUSE TO A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED ARTS INSTITUTION. UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF GIL CATES, THE GEFFEN HAS GROWN INTO A VIBRANT CULTURAL LANDMARK ON THE WESTSIDE OF LOS ANGELES. NOTED FOR ITS INTIMACY AND CELEBRATED FOR ITS WORLD-RENOWNED MIX OF CLASSIC AND CONTEMPORARY PLAYS, PROVOCATIVE NEW WORKS AND SECOND PRODUCTIONS, THE COMPANY HAS PRESENTED A REPERTOIRE OF AWARD-WINNING PRODUCTIONS THAT HAVE EARNED CRITICAL ACCLAIM AND INTERNATIONAL ATTENTION. THE GEFFEN HAS PRODUCED AMERICAN AND WORLD PREMIERES OF SOME OF THE MOST CHALLENGING WORK ON THE CONTEMPORARY STAGE. HONORED WITH MORE THAN 40 REGIONAL THEATER AWARDS, THE PLAYHOUSE IS ALSO A PROUD RECIPIENT OF GRANTS FROM THE EDGERTON NEW AMERICAN PLAY FOUNDATION AND THE STEINBERG CHARITABLE TRUST, ENABLING THE THEATER TO CONTINUE CONTRIBUTING TO THE CULTURAL CANON BY COMMISSIONING NEW WORKS. IN 2004, THE GEFFEN BROKE GROUND FOR ITS $17.5 MILLION CAPITAL CAMPAIGN TO RENOVATE AND EXPAND THE MAIN AUDITORIUM, CONSTRUCT THE AUDREY SKIRBALL KENIS THEATER, AN INTIMATE 120-SEAT ADDITION THAT SERVES AS A SECOND STAGE. SOME OF THE RENOVATIONS INCLUDED RECONFIGURING OF THE MAIN STAGE, INSTALLATION OF AN ELEVATOR, STATE-OF-THE-ART HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEMS, EXPANDED DRESSING ROOMS AND GREEN ROOM FOR ARTISTS, AND EXPANDED OFFICE SPACE TO SUPPORT THE GROWTH OF THE COMPANY. THE NEW SEATING PLAN INCREASES COMFORT AND IMPROVES SIGHT LINES. STAIRS LEADING TO THE MAIN STAGE AUDITORIUM WERE ELIMINATED TO INCREASE ACCESSIBILITY. THE AUDREY SKIRBALL KENIS THEATER AT THE GEFFEN PLAYHOUSE GIVES OUR THEATER THE RICH OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT NEW PLAYS, DEVELOP ORIGINAL AND EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCTIONS, AND EXPAND OUR EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH PROGRAMS. THE GEFFEN PLAYHOUSE WELCOMES AN AUDIENCE OF MORE THAN 130,000 EACH YEAR. 673841 23221 EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROGRAMS SEE MISSION & HISTORY STATEMENT ON LINE 4A 9459743 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 93 0 1 220 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 X 37 35 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 CA X BEHNAZ ATAEE GENERAL MANAGER 3102086500 10886 LE CONTE AVENUE LOS ANGELES CA 90024 PATRICIA K APPLEGATE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DR GENE D BLOCK 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARY ANN CLOYD 1.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN EBEY 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARK FLEISCHER 1.00 X 0 0 0 HERBERT M GELFAND 1.00 X 0 0 0 PATRICIA L GLASER 1.00 X 0 0 0 ADI GREENBERG 1.00 X 0 0 0 ARTHUR N GREENBERG 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARTHA HENDERSON 1.00 X 0 0 0 PAMELA ROBINSON HOLLANDER 1.00 X 0 0 0 JOAN KALOUSTIAN 1.00 X 0 0 0 GLORYA KAUFMAN 1.00 X 0 0 0 LORETTA KAUFMAN 1.00 X 0 0 0 DR GERALD S LEVEY 1.00 X 0 0 0 CARLA MALDEN 1.00 X 0 0 0 SUSAN MALLORY 1.00 X 0 0 0 BARRY MEYER 1.00 X 0 0 0 SUSANNA MIDNIGHT 1.00 X 0 0 0 STEVEN A OLSEN 1.00 X 0 0 0 LOREN ROTHSCHILD 1.00 X 0 0 0 LINDA BERNSTEIN RUBIN 1.00 X 0 0 0 TERI SCHWARTZ 1.00 X 0 0 0 RICHARD SHERMAN 1.00 X 0 0 0 FRED SPECKTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 LORRAINE SPURGE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DEEANNA STAATS 1.00 X 0 0 0 CYNTHIA P STAFFORD 1.00 X 0 0 0 HOWARD TENENBAUM 1.00 X 0 0 0 MICHAEL WALSH 1.00 X 0 0 0 HAROLD BROWN 1.00 X X 0 0 0 GIL CATES JR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 DENNIS DOTY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 GINNY MANCINI 1.00 X X 0 0 0 FRANK G MANCUSO 1.00 X X 0 0 0 RANDALL ARNEY 40.00 X 146294 0 8598 BEHNAZ ATAEE 40.00 X 128245 0 8598 KEN NOVICE 40.00 X 149834 0 6496 REGINA MILLER 30.00 X 200000 0 0 624373 0 23692 3 0 1 0 THEATER DIRECT INC 15053 VENTURA BLVD 206 SHERMAN OAKS CA 91403 TELEMARKETING 489667 SCENIC HIGHLIGHTS 11759 SHELDON ST SUN VALLEY CA 91352 PRODUCER & STUDIOS 450623 NOTHING TO HIDE LLC 2039 N HOBART BLVD LOS ANGELES CA 90027 THEATER SHOW 365290 THE STRIKING VIKING STORY PIRATES LLC 250 W 40TH STREET NEW YORK NY 10018 EDUCATION PROGRAM 246468 DREAM WARRIOR GROUP 18341 SHERMAN WAY 203B RESEDA CA 91335 IT CONSULTING & WEB MAINTENANCE 176262 12 987227 39900 3519111 103921 4546238 TICKET SALES 711110 6727050 6727050 OTHER THEATER REVENUE 711110 6676 6676 6733726 41785 41785 336 336 86141 87728 -1587 -1587 -1587 411244 987227 411244 0 298336 237385 60951 60951 120032 50159 69873 69873 PROCEEDS FROM WORKERS 900099 9635 9635 9635 11460957 6733726 0 180993 X 505398 392629 67777 44992 3082070 2382184 420162 279724 577226 490761 53649 32816 203262 158608 24803 19851 200000 200000 16498 6692 9806 27278 27278 1307602 1302328 5274 892723 806941 85782 510914 349494 116346 45074 294554 294554 126280 116576 8801 903 34363 3444 6557 24362 681345 681345 37433 37433 PRODUCTION EXPENSES 1819830 1819808 22 COMPUTER EXPENSES 245636 27904 185211 32521 EVENTS 216604 131919 84685 AUTO EXPENSES 175367 167353 8014 381365 327203 49849 4313 11335748 9459743 1007672 868333 472243 580529 254220 700346 303425 969747 76068 140956 4458 1838 1169962 1308632 21365572 4871590 17061449 16493982 3514378 2811938 22856203 23007968 235120 232596 3337965 3366869 3573085 3599465 X 16841886 16401522 2441232 3006981 19283118 19408503 22856203 23007968 125209 176 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 4598006 3070328 3784623 5235488 4546238 21234683 5387299 7560264 6089568 7159622 6733726 32930479 104205 112768 103518 113201 120032 553724 10089510 10743360 9977709 12508311 11399996 54718886 788675 678632 743130 307754 535950 3054141 0 788675 678632 743130 307754 535950 3054141 51664745 49366 55394 51146 53841 42121 251868 49366 55394 51146 53841 42121 251868 92569 77520 60951 231040 126280 9635 135915 10138876 10798754 10121424 12765952 11512703 55337709 0.93360 0.00460 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 19728682 3514181 16214501 1344837 1172818 172019 292053 184591 107462 16493982 FUNDS HELD BY UCLA FOUNDATION 2808298 DEPOSITS & OTHER ASSETS 3640 2811938 X 12159921 176 698788 698964 11460957 0 11460957 12034536 698788 698788 11335748 0 11335748 DESCRIPTION OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS UNDER FIN 48: PART X, LINE 2: THE ORGANIZATION ADOPTED THE ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES GUIDANCE EFFECTIVE SEPTEMBER 1, 2009.
