There are 3 major programming initiatives as part of the Festival: the world premiere Yoga with Jillian by Lia Romeo featuring Michole Biancosino and directed by Andrew W Smith, the All Hands on Deck Reading Series (Conceived by Antu Yacob) which featured new commissioned work by female playwrights of the African Diaspora (Playwrights: Judy Tate, Marie-Francoise Theodore and Shamar White and directed by Tonia Anderson and Noell LuSane), Hrosthwitha Project, which is aimed at reclaiming and celebrating the history of women in theatre. We commissioned adaptations of a play by the first woman playwright, 10th century abbess, Hrosthwitha of Gandersham from playwrights Liz Appel, Enid Graham, Yong Yong Li, Colleen ODoherty, and Deepa Purohit and directed by Rachel Dart and Kimille Howard. In addition, there were a number of one-night new play readings, including work by Eliza Bent, Beth Ann Powers, Amina Henry, Julia Blauvelt, Chris Reisig, and the Bellweather Project. In addition, the Women in Theatre Festival also hosted an evening of writing by women playwrights 40 or over. Through a submission and selection process, we have chosen an evening of monologues to be read by the playwrights and a company of actors. The playwrights that were a part of this were: Liz Amadio, Caytha Jentis, Anne Valentino, Julie Weinberg, Yvette Heyliger, Eve Cohen, Dana Leslie Goldstein, Ashley Minihan, Shellen Lubin, Angela Page, Serena Norr, Jessica Feder-Birnbaum, and J. Lois Diamond. The Festival took place from June 3-17 at The Gural Theatre at 502 West 53rd Street, NYC. 22183 0 16460 Yoga with Jillian by Lia Romeo: In this immersive play yoga teacher Jillian plans to take the audience through an amazing, incredible, fantastic, one hour yoga journey. But the past couple of years have been tough, am I right? As Jillian tries to teach again in our changed world, the shiny, happy yoga teacher attempts to keep the class, and herself, from completely imploding. In 2023, we took this show to 2 performances in Colorado, and then to the Endinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland where it ran for 27 performances in 28 days in August 2023 at the Pleasance Courtyard. It featured Michole Biancosino and was Directed by Andrew Smith. 11138 0 0 Parent Caregiver Playwrights Group: This programming was to support a playwrights group who are also caregivers, as well. The creation of this group is an act of recognition that the demands on caregiver writers, especially during an unpredictable and ongoing pandemic, continue to hack away at our creative time and invisible and isolating ways. It is also a show of confidence that an artistic career does not have to be derailed by the demands of caregiving. We supported this group through rental of rehearsal space, stipends for each playwright, and 2 public readings of their new works. We seek to support parent playwrights in the creation and presentation of original work, and are committed to foregrounding diverse points of view from historically underrepresented voices. 0 0 0 The remaining Program Services in 2023 were: 1) Women in Theatre Festival 2024: $2,000 Rent and $1,500 Security Deposit was paid to the performance venue for the WIT Festival 2024 to be located at 153 Christopher St., New York, NY. These appear on the Balance Sheet as Assets. 3350 0 0 2) The Pied Piper of Hamelin by Amina Henry: $3,350 was expended as the first royalty fees as well as stipends for actors and directors in a developmental reading. In 2023 we awarded playwright Amina Henry with our first Visionary Commssion, which is a long-term investment in a single playwright and a commitment to fully producing the work. 1020 0 1148 3) 40 Poems for 40 Pounds: Featuring 40 members from the Middlebury, Vermont community in an evening of poetry, performance, book-signing, and pop-up events. This book of poems by Trish Dougherty was directed by Michole Biancosino as a one night event on Sunday, March 12, 2023. While touching upon the shame of diets, the pressure of media-shaped expecations, and self-love, Forty Poems for Forty Pounds also weaves the constant of weight as self-reflection into all aspects of life from looking at the stars to the shaping of tall and slender poetry. 4370 0 1148 76865 true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 11 0 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 6 0 true false false false false true false true true false false false true true true false false false false false NY X Andrew W Smith III 2022574049 101 Bentley Dr Pittsburgh PA 15238 Alex Cranmer Director 0.50 X 0 0 0 Deepa Gupta Director 0.50 X 0 0 0 Andrew Smith Treasurer 30.00 X X 4250 0 0 Michole Biancosino Secretary 30.00 X X 0 0 0 Louisa Ives Director 0.50 X 0 0 0 Tony Biancosino Board President 8.00 X X 0 0 0 4250 0 0 false false false 21070 38619 59689 Ticket & Theatre Sales 711110 21685 0 0 21685 81374 21685 0 0 Dramaturg Fees 0 0 0 0 Producer Fees 4000 4000 0 0 Director Fees 3400 3400 0 0 Actors Compensation 8065 8065 0 0 64209 61400 2304 505 79674 76865 2304 505 17456 18806 200 200 0 0 4650 5000 22306 24006 10 10 10 10 X 22296 23996 22296 23996 22306 24006 X 1700 X false false false X 0 62813 20730 37717 52206 59689 233155 0 0 62813 20730 37717 52206 59689 233155 0 233155 0 0 0 233155 1.00000 1.00000 X 0 0 0 Pre-Payments for 2023 WIT Festival Space Rental 0 Security Deposit for 2023 Space Rental 1500 Security Deposit for 2024 Space Rental 1500 Pre-Payments for 2024 WIT Festival Space Rental 2000 5000 Andrew Smith Treasurer Oper Exp X 13980 0 false false false Andrew Smith Treasurer Oper Exp X 8000 0 false false false Michole Biancosino Secretary Oper Exp X 1000 0 false false false Tony Biancosino Board Pres Oper Exp X 1500 0 false false false Andrew Smith Treasurer Oper Exp X 1630 0 false false false Andrew Smith Treasurer Oper Exp X 997 0 false false false 0 Other Page 1, Part I, Line 1: Project Y produces new and innovative theatre by diverse playwrights, with a focus on unheard voices and artists.
