Students learn critical theater skills and life lessons. For many it is their first experience living and working outside of their socio-economic and demographic bubbles. For some, it is their first opportunity living in nature and engaging in traditional camp activities. The staff is led by professional actors and directors, and approximately 60 campers perform three fully produced shows in three weeks time. In addition to show rehearsals, campers take workshops in a variety of areas including: Songwriting, Shakespeare, Musical Theater Dance, Music Theory, Sight Reading and Character Analysis. Recreational activities such as: swimming, boating, archery, hiking, and nightly campfires, perfectly round out the camp experience. 91294 VTC challenges conventional social and cultural narratives through theater dedicated to DREAM: Diversity, Reciprocity, Education, Activism, & Mentorship. The vision of VTC is to be recognized as a model for purposeful inclusion of diverse voices and stories; casting and leadership that reflects our community and partnerships that propel cross community conversations with non-arts organizations, including public, private and higher education, government entities and advocacy groups. Ultimately, VTC ensures that stories get told in ways that spark new thought and conversation about bias and its consequences. 41348 VTC identifies and helps develop the next generation of playwrights, composers, lyricists, performers, and stagecraft artists from races and communities that have historically faced institutional and structural barriers to mainstream musical theater. VTCs ongoing educational and training programming, which reaches more than 300 students annually, includes DREAM VTC, an education and performance program for ages 12-18 that tours to sites serving populations with specific needs; and VTC Kids, which has education, summer camp, and performance components for ages 6-12. All of the education programs emphasize using the arts to give back to the community. The VTC signature mentorship programs are of critical importance in the efforts to challenge narratives. 339734 true true false false false false false false false false true false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 86 0 true 15 true false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false X 13 13 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false NJ X X X Vanguard Theater Company 8622053525 180 Bloomfield Avenue Montclair NJ 07042 X Janeece Freeman-Clark Artistic Director 40.00 0.00 12500 0 0 Anuraj Bismal Trustee 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Hilary Hoover Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Stacey Kilkenney Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Meryl Budnick Trustee 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MaryBeth Boger Co-President 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jennene Tierney Co-President 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ilena Silverman Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Veena Raj Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kate Larsen Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Maureen Ludwig Co-Treasurer 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lindsay Roberts Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Melani Wilson Smith Co-Treasurer 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Christopher Joyce Trustee 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Terri Gorgone Secretary 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jessica Sporn Executive Director 40.00 0.00 0 0 0 12500 0 false false false 0 21364 68131 89495 PRODUCTIONS 711110 57866 57866 RENTAL INCOME 2545 2545 TUITION 711110 216842 216842 277253 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 MERCHANDISE & CONCESSIONS 711110 26533 26533 26533 393281 303786 0 0 0 0 12500 8750 2500 1250 0 14436 2252 12184 0 0 3323 1832 1491 0 0 7000 7000 0 0 0 10420 10000 420 0 1625 1625 0 0 23132 4445 18687 0 0 0 2641 2641 0 23049 23049 1213 1213 Contracted Services 158071 158071 Camp Expenses 87682 87682 Set & Educational Supplies 39534 39534 Merchant Fees 7724 3862 3862 37307 23306 8280 5721 429657 339734 79090 10833 34095 24618 0 0 76250 93137 0 0 0 0 22003 15497 386230 195860 211420 190370 0 0 0 0 3981 125949 347749 449571 58553 102801 143477 53855 120000 170896 127584 322030 455136 X 25719 -5565 25719 -5565 347749 449571 -36376 5092 X false false false X 129303 230740 442319 502691 523353 1828406 281800 321475 31351 363661 452643 1450930 0 0 0 411103 552215 473670 866352 975996 3279336 0 0 3279336 377 116 34 527 0 377 116 34 527 0 0 411103 552592 473786 866352 976030 3279863 0.99980 0.00020 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 250400 132591 117809 98005 33068 64937 37825 30201 7624 190370 OTHER ASSET 200 RIGHT OF USE 125748 Rounding 1 125949 LONG TERM LEASE LIABILITY 56258 SHORT TERM LEASE LIABILITY 71326 127584 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Form 990 is reviewed by the Finance Committee prior to filing and a copy is provided to the full Board.
