Description	The 2009-2010 season was Arena Stages 60th year. This season was the final part of Arena Restaged, a massive multi-venue, two year festival of American voices leading up to the opening of Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater. This season we embraced a trio of the great American art form- the musical.Our exploration included an exciting new form of a Tony award-winning musical, a re-imagining of the longest running Off-Broadway success and time with the incomparable Duke Ellington. On top of the musicals, our audiences experienced three rich comedies and dramas that fiercely examine our lives during these groundbreaking times.(CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O)	Description

FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	In order to allow for a timely and cost effective renovation of our permanent home and to maintain our D.C. roots, Arena will be performing in two locations for the 09/10 season, at Arena Stage in Crystal City and at the Lincoln Theater on U Street, NW. More than the successes on its stages, Arena has seen continued growth in new play development, and success in its Community Engagement division that reaches out to D.C. area schools and neighborhoods. In January 2008, Arena Stage officially began construction on its 47-year-old theater campus in Southwest, D.C. This expansion and renovation will make way for a three-theater facility dedicated to the development and production of American theater. The renovation will be a breathtaking expansion of the current campus allowing Arena Stage to focus on the strengths of the two existing spaces - the Fichandler Stage and the Kreeger Theater - while reinventing the surrounding building and adding the Arlene and Robert Kogod Cradle. The theater has currently raised $108 of its $125 million fundraising goal since the Next Stage Campaign launched in 2002. Arena Stage at the Mead Center is scheduled to open for the 2010/2011 season. Arena Stage in Crystal City (1800 S. Bell Street, Arlington, VA 22202. While the new Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater is under construction, the company is performing in the former Crystal Forum, which underwent a substantial renovation in preparation for our audiences. A five-minute drive from Arena Stage's previous location at 6th and Maine in Southwest D.C., Arena Stage in Crystal City is close to Reagan National Airport and one block from the Crystal City Metro station, which is serviced by both the Blue and Yellow Metro lines. The Crystal City area boasts many well-known restaurants (Bebo Trattoria, Jaleo, McCormick and Schmick's) and has abundant free evening and weekend parking within walking distance to the theater. The theater is roughly the same size as the Kreeger, and hosted four productions in the 2009/10 season: The Quality of Life, Stick Fly, The Light in the Piazza, and R. Buckminster Fuller: The History (and Mystery) of the Universe Arena Stage at The Lincoln Theatre (1215 U Street, NW, Washington, DC 20009). Located in the heart of the recently revitalized U Street Corridor, The Lincoln Theatre is arguably the most beautiful historic theater in the metropolitan area. Opened in 1922 as a first-run movie and vaudeville house, the Lincoln was the anchor of Washington's historic Black Broadway, featuring artists such as Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, and Billie Holiday. Elegantly restored to its original grandeur, the historic landmark echoes the spirit and life that pervaded the U Street Corridor in the first half of the 20th century.

FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	The 1920's jewel is the perfect marriage of old-world elegance and current-day comforts. With a metro station right across U Street, street and valet parking available for purchase, and some of the District's best eateries just steps away (Al Crostino, Busboys & Poets, Cakelove, Creme Cafe), Arena Stage at The Lincoln Theatre is the perfect complement to our intimate performance space in Crystal City. I. Mainstage Productions The season kicks off in Crystal City with The Quality of Life (September 11-November 1, 2009) a work from Emmy Award-winning writer Jane Anderson that is filled with compassion, honesty and humor. In the wake of personal tragedies, two cousins meet one weekend to forge a friendship out of distant familial bonds. Steady, gentle Dinah and husband Bill, reeling from the loss of their daughter find comfort in spirituality. Meanwhile, rebellious, energetic Jeanette and husband Neil mitigate illness and the destruction of their home through alternative practices. Can these couples from widely different political and religious backgrounds join together to confront the challenges of loss and survival? Directed by Lisa Peterson and featuring JoBeth Williams, this remarkable new play harnesses spirit and fortitude while exploring the promise of love, the pride of endurance and quality of life. Leading off the season in the Lincoln Theater, The Fantasticks (November 20-January 10, 2010) has been captivating audiences since 1960. The memorable score by Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt enlivens the heart of this passionate musical that charmed Off-Broadway for a record breaking 42 years. In a twist on the classic story of boy meets girl, Matt and Luisa are led by El Gallo from the wistfulness of romance to the reality of life. Rising star director Amanda Dehnert re-imagines this timeless fable in an abandoned amusement park, a perfect playground for the story's emotional carnival.	EXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
fORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	Playwright Lydia Diamond opens the world of race and privilege in this thought provoking modern family comedy, Stick Fly (January 1-February 7, 2010, Crystal City). One lazy summer weekend, Kent LeVay invites his fiancee Taylor, to meet his parents at their luxurious Martha's Vineyard summer home. Taylor, under the microscope and unaccustomed to the surrounding wealth, challenges the household dynamic. The family ties rapidly unravel when Kent's womanizing older brother surprises everyone with his white girlfriend. Conflict and dysfunction ensue as the household vigorously airs their long-secret dirty linens along with the drapes. Lydia Diamond, and exciting new American voice, astutely examines African American social aristocracy. Arena's Artistic Director Molly Smith directs The Light in the Piazza (March 5-April 25,2010, Crystal City) an intimate, chamber version of the musical that won six Tony Awards and thousands of hearts across the country and is being hailed as a "magnificent theatrical achievement" by the Chicago Tribune. When a young girl falls in love with the handsome Fabrizio, her mother is no longer able to conceal the family secret and is forced to reconsider not only her daughter's future but her own as well. Playwright Craig Lucas (Prelude to a Kiss) distills Elizabeth Spencer's novella to a poignant tale about the essence of love, aided by the lush music of Adam Guettel. (Floyd Collins) Duke Ellington's music returns to the Lincoln Theatre in the U street corridor with Sophisticated Ladies, the award winning musical revue that explores the legacy of Washington DC's jazz hero (April 9- May 30, 2010). This glorious re-creation of the big band sound features some of the most memorable music from the Roaring Twenties to the Swing Era. Choreographed and starring Tony nominated Maurice Hines reprising his role from the Broadway production, this stylish and brassy retrospective travels through a history of American song and dance from the Charleston to swing to virtuosic tap dancing. Elegantly directed by Charles Randolph Wright and featuring local tap sensations Leo and John Manzari Sophisticated Ladies broke all box office records for Arena Stage and was extended three additional weeks. Arena Stage's time at the Crystal City space was completed with R. Buckminster Fuller: The History (and Mystery) of the Universe (May 28- July 4, 2010), a chance to explore humanity with Renaissance man R. Buckminster Fuller, inventor of the geodesic dome. A hero of the green movement, Bucky framed many of the great environmental ideas of his time and ours. Written and directed by D. W. Jacobs, this multimedia performance gives audiences a change to know the man and his world saving mission in a play "as startlingly funny as it is intellectually stimulating" (San Francisco Examiner).	eXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
fORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	II. New Play Development Arena Stage continues to be one of the only major regional theaters in the nation devoted to producing American voices. Arena is committed to developing a body of work that challenges, enlivens, entertains and provokes audiences. We are building on previous efforts by placing new play development squarely at the artistic center of the theater, creating a hotbed of new play development activity at Arena Stage. The Downstairs New Play Reading Series, in its 11th year, is a demonstration of Arena's longstanding commitment to the development of new works and to the support of American artists. The Downstairs Series began in 2000 and is currently under the direction of Arena Stage Artistic Associate: Literary, Janine Sobeck. The 2009- 2010 Downstairs New Play Reading Series at Arena Stage in Crystal City included Red Hot Patriot, a one woman play based on the writings of journalist Molly Ivins as played by actor Kathleen Turner and The Laramie Project: Ten Years Later - An Epilogue by Moises Kaufman, Leigh Fondakowski, Greg Pierotti, Andy Paris, and Stephen Belber. The Downstairs Series also included the following pieces; Inconnu by Ellen McLaughlin with music by Peter Foley - Spanning the course of 22 years and two world wars, Inconnu depicts the story of Henri, the "unknown solider" in France, who suffers from amnesia following his term with the war. In his quest to return home, he encounters an array of people claiming his as their husband, brother, and son. Through evocative language and haunting music, Inconnu universally explores the consequences and casualties of war. Fabulous Faith by R&B singer and actress Marva Hicks. - An autobiographical song cycle filled with hope, courage, and perseverance, Fabulous Faith journeys through the story of performer Marva Hicks from her childhood experiences to multi-faceted career.	eXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
fORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	Redhand Guitar by Evan and Mike Yionoulis - In the late 21st century, the world is covered with sand, and two runaways, Atticus and Zak, discover a guitar with a faded red handprint. The musical then interweaves the stories of all the owners of the guitar, spanning 4 generations: Will, a folk singer during the dust bowl who becomes involved with a traveling carnival and the worker's union. Peake, a 60's rockstar who loses his muse due to his unfaithfulness to his wife. Flanery, Peake's daughter who get's lost in the 90's grunge scene. Nigel, her manager who is a sell-out. Each character must deal with their legacy - who has come before them and what they are leaving behind as the guitar is continuously passed. The Downstairs Series contained The Great Man written by Charlie Schulman Directed by David Dower with Terrence Currier, Michael Kramer, Hugh Nees, and Carla Harting (Monday, April 19, 2010, 7:00 PM) When the "Biographer" is selected to write the biography of his literary hero - the reclusive, cantankerous seventy-something year old "Great Man"- he hopes to leave a legacy that will "link the two men's names together for all eternity." As he delves further into the Great Man's life and begins to contemplate the human wreckage that lies in the wake of "greatness," his sycophantic view of the great author sours. Twists and turns ensue as the play explores questions about the relationship between life and art; what it takes to be a great writer and a good person; and who can be the rightful heir to greatness. The Downstairs New Play Reading Series is made possible, in part, due to support from The Barbara R. Walton Endowment Fund for New Playwrights. Barbara R. Walton (1920-2003) was very active in the Washington theater community, serving as president of the Little Theatre of Alexandria and secretary of the Board of Trustees at Arena Stage (board member 1957-65). In addition to directing community theater productions for the Montgomery Players and The Children's Theatre of Richmond, she wrote six full-length plays and numerous one-acts that were produced throughout the Capitol region. Her most notable works include: Hallowe'en Time, The Wonderful Idababa, Lost, The Gin-Gin Trade and The Red Hat. Her musical The Sing Ling Circus (book and lyrics) was presented on the Fichandler Stage by the Arena Stage repertory company in 1962 to wide audience and critical acclaim. The 2009/10 Downstairs Series is also funded in part by the DC Commission on the Arts & Humanities, an agency supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, as well as the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Commissions: Arena continued to work with commissioned playwrights Karen Zacarias, Marva Hicks, Heather McDonald and Marcus Gardley as they complete their work.	eXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
fORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	The American Voices New Play Institute The Mead Center will be a groundbreaking new initiative created by Arena Stage for the advancement of new play development within American Theater-The American Voices New Play Institute. This program-integral to Arena's mission as a leading center for the production, presentation, development and study of American theater-is made possible through the keystone gift of $1.1 million in support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The Institute is designed as a center for research and development of effective practices, programs and processes for new play development in the American Theater. The American Voices New Play Institute operates with a suite of interrelated programs, including the New Play Producing Fellowships, administration of Round One of the NEA New Play Development Program, and major convenings of American artists and arts administrators around issues facing the new play sector. Georgetown Partnership The fall of 2009 marked the fourth year of the successful partnership between Arena Stage and Georgetown University's Theater and Performance Studies Program. The partnership continued with staged readings of new works; new symposiums focused on contemporary issues in theater; theater companies hosted in residence and master classes taught by accomplished theater artists. The partnership involves Georgetown students in all stages of the theatrical process and provides hands-on opportunities to work with Arena Stage staff and visiting artists. The Arena-Georgetown partnership is made possible thanks to the generosity of Andrew R. Ammerman and the Family of H. Max and Josephine F. Ammerman. The partnership will continue to grow this year and in the future as part of Arena's American Voices New Play Institute (AVNPI) funded by a 1.1 million dollar grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.	eXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
fORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	The partnership workshopped a new musical from the Downstairs New Play Reading Series titled Redhand Guitar, by Evan and Mike Yionoulis, which marked the first collaboration this year. The workshop included a two-week rehearsal with a 19 person cast that finished with a private staged reading. The workshop took place on the Georgetown University campus allowing students to observe the process and attend the final workshop presentation. The next partnership event was a special presentation of Will the Circle Be Unbroken: Death, Rebirth, and Hunger for a Faith, a performance honoring the life and work of life and work of Studs Terkel, on December 7, 2009 at Georgetown University's Gaston Hall. The production is a poignant evening of song, story and celebration that features accomplished D.C. and national actors and Georgetown alumni. This year's partnership featured a series of convenings with industry leaders to discuss issues currently affecting American theater and the development of new work. Each featured both a private meeting of theater professionals and a public presentation. These convenings are part of Arena's AVNPI and were hosted on the Georgetown campus. The symposiums for 2009-2010 season included; Defining Diversity on December 4-6, 2009 - This symposium addressed the role diversity in the theater. It featured an open panel discussion and a video screenings featuring a work-in-progress film by Robert Levi that highlights the role of diversity in the first round of selections in the NEA New Play Development Program hosted by Arena Stage. Black American Playwrights on January 15-17, 2010 - Leading black playwrights convened to discuss the issues affecting their work and their current role in the canon of American Theater. The public was invited to hear playwrights read excerpts from their work, and a Q&A session was held. Theater Outside the Box: Devised Work - on February 19-21, 2010 This conversation investigated the unique challenges facing ensemble-driven, devised, and interdisciplinary theater. The weekend culminated with a public lecture-demo of ensemble and devised performance techniques. The Civilians, a documentary theater group, workshopped The Great Immensity December 7-12, 2009 at Georgetown University. By using Georgetown University students throughout the process, the resident company further developed their piece while students were given the opportunity to participate directly in the development of this new work.	eXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
fORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	Arena audiences and Georgetown students are both given educational opportunities through the partnership. Eight Georgetown professors of psychology, theology and English led post-show discussions for Arenas recent production of The Quality of Life and R. Buckminster Fuller: The History (and Mystery) of the Universe. In addition to events held directly on the university campus, both institutions collaborate to help promote the others work. Arena Stage established a Georgetown Student Night, so that Theatre and Performance Studies students may attend a show at Arena at a significant discount, allowing university students to attend professional theater and help spread the word about Arena productions. National Endowment for the Arts New Play Development Program Following the success of the inaugural round, the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) has renewed its New Play Development Program (NPDP) for a second round. Arena Stage will continue to serve as the NEA NPDP program administrator through the Arena Stage American Voices New Play Institute. Two projects were chosen as NEA Outstanding New American Plays. Each will receive $90,000 to support the final stages of development and a world premiere of the selected play. Five NEA Distinguished New Play Development Projects will each receive $20,000 to support the early stages of development of a new play. The NEA and Arena Stage expect to announce the selected round two projects in June 2010. The continuing success of the two inaugural selected NEA Outstanding New American Plays Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo and The Brother/Sister Plays demonstrate the quality of the selection process and potential outcome of the program. The premiere of Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo by Rajiv Joseph and directed by Mois's Kaufman was such a success in Center Theater Group's Kirk Douglas Theatre that the company is producing it again in its larger Mark Taper Forum venue this spring. The second selected project, McCarter Theater Center's premiere of Tarrell Alvin McCraney's trilogy The Brother/Sister Plays traveled to New York last fall for an off-Broadway run as a co-production with The Public Theater. Arena Stage is one of the nation's oldest nonprofit theaters with a focus on American work. Arena's partnership with the Arts Endowment falls under the leadership of Producing Artistic Associate David Dower. Dower, the founding Artistic Director of San Francisco's Z Space Studio, one of the nation's leading laboratories for the development of new work, also created the Western Presenters Commissioning Initiative, through which ten West Coast presenters jointly commissioned a dozen new works specifically for touring.	eXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
fORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	III. Education and Community Engagement In addition to producing great plays, Arena Stage also serves almost 20,000 students and young people each year through our diverse array of Community Engagement activities. In the last two seasons Community Engagement has worked with 210 public schools, 87 private schools, 16 DC public charter schools and 129 other groups with contact ranging from providing study guides and scheduling in-class visits for student groups to year-long school based residencies in playwriting. Arena's Student Playwrights Project (SPP) seeks to enrich the educational and creative experiences of D.C. area youth. Through playwriting individually and in groups, students are exposed to the arts in an active, creative way while using theater to improve their writing, critical thinking, self-expression and teamwork skills. They are taught to think and work creatively, important skills which are necessary for their future success in the workplace; employers are increasingly looking for employees who can think creatively and problem-solve effectively. One-time playwriting workshops were provided to schools interested in entering the competition and all of the classes submitted plays to the competition. Partner schools participated in yearlong playwriting residencies; each student involved wrote a 10-minute play and also performed a class-written ensemble piece in showcases at THEARC in April. These performances were the culmination of months of writing and rehearsals for the students, their teachers and their partner Arena Stage University Teaching Artists. The final aspect of the annual Student Playwrights Project is the ten-minute playwriting competition. This year there were more than 500 submissions to the competition. In November 2008, CE staff conducted 18 free playwriting workshops in schools that reached more than 400 students. The eight winning plays were given professional theater resources to develop their play (including feedback from a personal dramaturg and director) and mount a staged reading for an audience. In addition, Arena Stage hosts two evenings of readings for both the sixteen middle school and high school honorable mention plays. Honorable Mention readings were February 22, 2010 (middle school) and February 23, 2010 (high school) at 7:30 pm at Source, 1835 14th Street, NW. Winning plays were performed March 13, 15 and 16, 2010, at 7:30 pm and March 22, 2009, at 12:00 noon (school matinee), also at Source. Featured Plays included; A Skipped Breakfast by Eleanor Tolf Grade 8, Capitol Hill Day School, Washington, D.C.

Classroom teachers in the area require 15 hours of professional development training in order to receive mandatory teacher re-certification. Project Enrichment is designed to enhance and expand the theatergoing experience for participating D.C. students, teachers and their schools. Teachers involved with Project Enrichment represent a wide variety of disciplines (English, humanities, foreign languages, music, drama, history, etc.) and schools within the District. The DC Ticket Partnership (DCTP) offers deeply discounted tickets to DC Public Schools, which continues to have a high attendance rate. Over 1200 tickets were reserved for DCPS students this season. The program also conducts in-class visits for Arena plays. Multiple visits are scheduled, many of which are now at the University level. Arena has received praise from teachers and students about these visits, and many University bookings have resulted because of recommendations to professors from previous participants. In addition, the pre-show visits with our DC public school students have shown great benefit; the students are more attentive, more interested, and less disruptive during the performance. The students who have received pre-show visits are also demonstrating an increase in active participation during the post show visits, as they have been given specific things to think about before seeing a performance.	eXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
fORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	An essential part of Arena's Community Engagement program is Community Partnerships. For the fifth season we will have a partnership with Pediatric HIV/AIDS Care, Inc. to work with students affected by HIV/AIDS. CE also provided a workshop to 8 future cultural attaches in conjunction with the State Department for the second year in a row. Students were preparing to facilitate partnerships between American arts institutions and similar groups overseas, as well as preparing to represent American arts and artists. CE staff taught a full day of workshops at St. Anselm's Abbey School. Educational materials, called Student Study Guides (also known as "Arena's Page") and Curriculum Connections, for each production are sent to all participating schools on a regular basis. All of the publications for are also made available on Arena's website. Arena also has a number of initiatives specifically targeted for our Southwest neighborhood. Now in its entering its 8th year at Jefferson Middle School, Voices of Now is an after-school drama program for Southwest students and continues to reach new students while enjoying a 100% retention rate of program alumni. Participating youth study improvisation, play-building and acting techniques. All Voices of Now students who have participated have continued to return until no longer enrolled at Jefferson Junior High School. Past ensemble members are being trained to serve as mentors and leaders to current ensemble members. The ensemble has performed at numerous prestigious venues, including Arena Stage, the Kennedy Center, Imagination Stage and the national American Alliance of Theater in Education Conference, as well as local churches and community centers. This year there were two Voices of Now Ensembles: Jefferson Middle School Ensemble and a the new Mentor Ensemble composed of high school students who completed the middle school program at Jefferson. Of all of the students who participated, 12 applied for and received Camp Arena Stage scholarships (full tuition scholarships). The Jefferson Ensemble attended Sophisticated Ladies. The Mentor Ensemble attended: "The Fantasticks", "Stick Fly" and "Sophisticated Ladies" at Arena Stage. The also attended "Full Circle" & "Clybourne Park" at Woolly Mammoth Theater Company with Arena Stage staff. Moving Stories: Literacy through Creative Drama focuses on promoting literacy skills in pre-school and kindergarten students using creative dramatics, storytelling and playwriting. Moving Stories has expanded from being in one school in its first year to several schools this year with CE staff spending over 13 hours directly working with the students. These schools received regular visits from CE staff, and the program served over 30 students. In addition to the classes involved in the school residencies, with Moving Stories Extreme--one-shot versions of the program at 14th and T--we reach an additional 225 students seasonally. Arena also provides a special night of discounted tickets for our Southwest neighbors: Southwest Night. $25 Tickets are offered to those who live and work in the Southwest. The program continues to attract audiences, and fills the houses each time it is offered.	eXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
fORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A	Professional Development Programs continue to enable young adults from both the local area and throughout the country to participate in training programs at Arena each season. Internships, senior internships and fellowships are available in all aspects of theater production and administration. Last season, Arena hosted approximately 17 individuals participating in our training programs, including those in the well-regarded Allen Lee Hughes Fellows Program. Named for the award-winning African-American lighting designer, the Allen Lee Hughes Fellows Program provides opportunities each year for young people who are in the early stages of their career to train in the not-for-profit theater, with a particular emphasis on ethnic diversity. Joined recently with Arena's long-standing internship program, the Allen Lee Hughes Fellows Program has provided hundreds of men and women of all backgrounds with the highest standard of training in the areas of arts administration, artistic, community engagement, and technical production. "Graduates" from the Fellowship Program have gone on to work in significant positions across the country in theatres such as Berkeley Rep, The Public Theatre, Lincoln Center, Old Globe Theatre, New Jersey Performing Arts Center, and of course, Arena Stage. Other alumni have become freelance directors or designers, book publishers, film and television professionals and have started their own production companies. Summer 2010 was the sixth year of Camp Arena Stage, a summer camp for students aged 8-12 with both a four-week and 2-Week sessions at Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School. Camp Arena Stage is dedicated to the personal and creative growth of its participants by providing a summer of unforgettable arts experiences, centered on the campers' ability to choose from a host of activities in theater, dance, music, media and visual arts. Staffed by professional artist-educators and supported by a team of highly-trained, warm and energetic counselors, Camp Arena Stage aims to bring together campers from diverse backgrounds to explore, discover and create art. This particular summer over 75% of the staff had returned from previous years. Each day consists of five pre-designated periods, with activities like video production, papier-mache, improvisation, stage combat and hip hop dance. In addition, one "choice" period breaks the class routine when campers get to choose from a list of surprise "one-shot" sessions such as ultimate Frisbee, stage makeup, poetry slam or yoga. A daily Noontime Show highlights the talents of campers, counselors and guest artists. During the 4-Week Intensive, Camp Arena Stage immerses campers in the artistic process, allowing time for in-depth projects and arts exploration. Field trips, theme days and the final Arts Extravaganza give young people the chance to whet their artistic appetite in a unique setting. The 2-Week Session allows students to benefit from Arena's artistic instruction without the time commitment of the intensive program. Summer 2010 was the second year for Arena Stage Academy, a pilot program in musical theater for high school age students running concurrently with the 2-Week Session of Camp Arena Stage, using the same facilities at Georgetown Visitation. Arena Stage Academy sold our early and could claim a lengthy waiting list. Aimed at serious students interested in rigorous pre-professional training, the faculty features frequent Arena collaborators Parker Esse, choreography, Lynn McNutt, acting, and George Fulginiti-Shakar, music direction.	eXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS (CONTINUED)
