In November 2023, Heartbeat Opera's 8th annual Drag Extravaganza took center stage at Roulette in Brooklyn. Created by Nico Krell and Jacob Ashworth, and directed by Nico Krell, this vibrant production offered a playful riff on Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov's The Golden Cockerel.

Directed by Shadi Ghaheri, the dark comedy was sung in English and received acclaim for its poignant and timely narrative. 769834 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true 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 false false false true 47 0 true 55 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 8 8 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false NY X Christian de Gre Cardenas 6128169659 c/o J Ashworth 225 Lincoln Place Brooklyn NY 11217 Jacob Ashworth Artistic Dir. 40.00 0.00 X X 69950 0 0 Therese Esperdy President 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Robert Fitzpatrick Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sonja Berggren Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Stephen Foster Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Louise Proske Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ethan Heard Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Liz Diamond Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Debra Valentine Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 69950 0 false false false 0 7112 95195 659007 761314 Handling income 711110 5102 5102 Ticket sales 711110 76361 76361 81463 0 0 0 0 0 11788 7112 11788 0 0 0 Miscellaneous 711110 0 842777 81463 X 0 0 0 0 73200 62220 3660 7320 350474 277588 34034 38852 0 0 12690 9010 1654 2026 32276 25639 2983 3654 0 0 5500 5500 0 0 0 227375 197375 30000 23150 23150 12301 9841 1599 861 0 0 5467 4872 387 208 28140 25049 2009 1082 0 0 0 0 725 400 325 6690 2850 3212 628 Costumes and production expens 131173 131173 Fundraising expense 3430 3430 Printing and Publications 833 667 108 58 0 913424 769834 85471 58119 400564 257020 0 13410 82468 0 0 0 0 0 3060 6316 3299 825 1900 2474 0 0 0 0 0 418934 348278 14619 14821 421 210 15040 15031 X 403894 308247 25000 403894 333247 418934 348278 -70647 X true X false true false X 526939 549266 710004 606693 762314 3155216 103631 64071 261817 48206 81463 559188 0 0 0 630570 613337 971821 654899 843777 3714404 222000 336500 300000 299250 1157750 0 222000 336500 300000 299250 1157750 2556654 4624 22 4646 0 4624 22 4646 0 1050 2599 3649 630570 613337 977495 657520 843777 3722699 0.68680 0.73030 0.00120 0.00140 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 3299 825 2474 2474 Payroll liabilities 210 210 X X X X X X X false NY 10th Anniversary Gala 18900 7112 11788 11788 18900 7112 11788 11788 11788 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b Staff and the Organization's accountant prepare a draft 990 from for review by a designated board member and subsequent revision, as appropriate, for presentation to the full board in final form for their approval prior to filing.
