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. 462297 33049 EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROGRAMS SEE MISSION & HISTORY STATEMENT ON LINE 4A 8609533 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 113 0 1 201 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 X 36 34 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 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 HAROLD A BROWN 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARY ANN CLOYD 1.00 X 0 0 0 DENNIS DOTY 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 MICHAEL B KONG 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 GINNY MANCINI 1.00 X 0 0 0 SUSANNA MIDNIGHT 1.00 X 0 0 0 STEVEN A OLSEN 1.00 X 0 0 0 LAWRENCE RAMER 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 ANDY SPAHN 1.00 X 0 0 0 FRED SPECKTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 CYNTHIA P STAFFORD 1.00 X 0 0 0 HOWARD TENENBAUM 1.00 X 0 0 0 DR CHARLES E YOUNG 1.00 X 0 0 0 RANDALL ARNEY 40.00 X X 136827 0 7297 GILBERT CATES 1.00 X X 0 0 0 FRANK G MANCUSO 1.00 X X 0 0 0 KEN NOVICE 40.00 X X 149857 0 5303 BEHNAZ ATAEE 40.00 X 113863 0 7013 400547 0 19613 3 0 1 0 THEATER DIRECT INC 15053 VENTURA BLVD 206 SHERMAN OAKS CA 91403 TELEMARKETING 483070 SERRICH PRODUCTIONS INC 20601 OAKSBORO CIRCLE WOODLAND HILLS CA 91364 PRODUCER & STUDIOS 400000 SCENIC HIGHLIGHTS 11759 SHELDON ST SUN VALLEY CA 91352 DIRECT MAIL 244205 LOS ANGELES TIMES FILE 54221 LOS ANGELES CA 90074 ADVERTISING 225374 HEALTHNET 11971 FOUNDATION PLACE RANCHO CARDOVA CA 95670 HEALTHCARE 190187 13 803844 2619748 137536 3423592 TICKET SALES 711110 5666018 5666018 OTHER THEATER REVENUE 711110 423550 423550 6089568 51146 51146 135988 132500 3488 3488 3488 264071 803844 264071 0 378278 285709 92569 92569 103518 39899 63619 63619 UCLA REIMBURSED MAINTE 900099 361031 361031 361031 10085013 6606787 0 54634 436354 347713 59080 29561 3049208 2399558 431816 217834 548173 467742 57990 22441 198823 156336 27370 15117 8089 8040 49 37192 37192 102531 102531 1025081 941809 83272 475388 299659 106240 69489 266678 266358 320 178037 165847 10896 1294 19472 3775 6617 9080 93100 93100 648229 648229 38650 5563 33087 PRODUCTION EXPENSES 1299327 1298927 400 OUTSIDE SERVICES 1070061 901486 168575 COMPUTER EXPENSES 198840 31712 145908 21220 MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSES 197954 192579 600 4775 EVENTS 153176 109764 43412 415105 364436 42998 7671 10459468 8609533 1053263 796672 415919 291899 616456 821531 688090 249921 152345 130780 1921 1873 1018205 1201604 21244871 3710309 15803908 17534562 5188635 2966406 23885479 23198576 424535 228336 2736006 3114140 2269321 1774938 5429862 5117414 X 15391177 15487404 3064440 2593758 18455617 18081162 23885479 23198576 -374455 0 X X 0 1 1 X 0 X X X X 0 0 0 UCLA 956006143 501(C)(3) 1 1 1 0 1 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 19903539 2625977 17277562 1169265 977739 191526 172067 106593 65474 17534562 FUNDS HELD BY UCLA FOUNDATION 2963706 DEPOSITS & OTHER ASSETS 2700 2966406 10085013 10459468 -374455 0 -374455 10909701 235009 235009 10674692 -589679 -589679 10085013 11284156 235009 589679 824688 10459468 0 10459468 DESCRIPTION OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS UNDER FIN 48: PART X: THE ORGANIZATION ADOPTED THE ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES GUIDANCE EFFECTIVE SEPTEMBER 1, 2009.
