A word-of-mouth hit, the production extended its run by one week after selling out most performances. AKIRA KUROSAWA EXPLAINS HIS MOVIES AND YOGURT (WITH LIVE & ACTIVE CULTURES!) by Julia Izumi, directed by Aileen Wen McGroddy, presented by Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company and produced in partnership with New Georges, May 2 to June 4, 2025, in Washington, DC. IRANIAN GIRLFRIEND, written and directed by SB Tennent, was produced by the lead artist and presented In Collaboration with New Georges at MITU580, September 14 to October 4, 2025. The project, a darkly comic performance installation about displacement, divorce, and dark times, was originally developed in our Audrey Residency program in 2020, and passed through many stylistic iterations and theatrical toolkits before landing in production as an entertaining mix of solo performance, film/video installation and runway fashion show. EVERYTHING IS HERE by Peggy Stafford, directed by Meghan Finn, was presented by The Tank and produced by Peggy Stafford In Collaboration with New Georges at 59e59 Street Theatres, December 3 to 20, 2025. Anchored by an intergenerational cast of one-of-a-kind performers (Mia Katigbak, Pete Simpson, Jan Leslie Harding, Petronia Paley and Susannah Millonzi), the play unfolds at an assisted living facility where three residents mark time in a common room, acting out scenes from a community theater production. Offbeat, unsentimental, and consistently surprising, the play found an intergenerational audience, as well.Ongoing artistic and organizational programs: The Jam: New Georges collaboration-based, artist-led working lab for early- to mid-career theatermakers met biweekly throughout 2025. The Audrey Residencies: the 2025 residency group consists of 12 resident artists working on 8 new-play projects, individually or in collaboration. Participants in New Georges Supported Productions, in which we provide no-fee fiscal sponsorship, promotional support, and an institutional platform to affiliated artists producing their work independently, included LOBSTER, by Kallan Dana, directed by Hanna Yurfest, at The Tank in April/May 2025; A(U)NTS, by Zo Geltman, directed by Julia Sirna-Frest, at The Brick in May 2025; and OPEN, by Crystal Skillman, directed by Jessi D. Hill, in the Space Program at WP Theater in July 2025. The Room/Subsidized Workspace: The Room hosted the rehearsals and development processes of 102 New Georges affiliated artists, both participants in core development programs and our Subsidized Workspace program, which provides our artists with experiment space for their own creative projects at very low rates. In fact, affiliated artist use of The Room is higher than at any time in our history, limiting the income usually provided by outside renters in favor of our artists and mission-driven activity. 605583 true true false false false false false false false false true false false true true true true 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 25 0 true 4 true false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false X 10 8 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false NY X Jaynie Saunders Tiller 6463368077 85 Broad Street 17th Fl New York NY 10004 Jaynie Saunders Tiller Board Member 40.00 0.00 X 101371 0 0 Deadria Harrington Secretary 10.00 0.00 X X 28009 0 0 Susan Bernfield Board Member 35.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Rachel Jackson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Morgan Brill Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Danielle Porcaro Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Hilary Bettis Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Miranda Haymon Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Alisa Schierman Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Rachel Karpf President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 129380 1 false false false 0 27013 102280 944027 1073320 Box office 711110 38894 38894 Co-production revenue 711110 9173 9173 48067 2865 2865 0 0 12490 12490 12490 12490 0 24220 27013 24220 0 0 0 Miscellaneous income 711110 69 69 69 1136811 63491 X 0 0 0 0 112273 64878 27426 19969 0 1320 1320 0 19873 10469 6787 2617 10760 6456 2690 1614 0 0 7150 5720 1073 357 0 0 0 109580 93653 4417 11510 16903 920 13677 2306 6934 5547 1040 347 0 0 113238 90685 16915 5638 12827 7916 3144 1767 0 0 0 0 1598 1278 240 80 3042 2434 456 152 Production costs 305053 305053 Miscellaneous 12126 9701 1819 606 Indirect benefit expenses 3443 3443 Bank and finance charges 2400 1243 1157 3861 873 776 2212 742381 605583 83023 53775 100825 108298 129917 288587 125691 366053 180 433 0 0 0 0 24986 4778 13380 13380 0 0 0 0 1598 0 49195 73862 432392 842011 20166 11348 845 690 31916 56078 52927 68116 X 211020 178259 168445 595636 379465 773895 432392 842011 394430 X false true X false false X 465720 638608 541932 480381 1073320 3199961 0 0 465720 638608 541932 480381 1073320 3199961 811954 2388007 3749 15999 16360 15207 15355 66670 0 7238 683 897 69 8887 3275518 217138 0.72900 0.70780 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 13380 13380 Operating right of use asset 56173 Security deposit 17689 73862 Operating lease liability 56078 56078 X 1246811 110000 110000 1136811 1136811 852381 110000 110000 742381 742381 Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Organization is a not-for-profit corporation exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and has been designated as a corporation which is not a private foundation.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c Periodic reviews shall be conducted by the Board to ensure that Theater Labrador operates in a manner consistent with its charitable purposes and that it does not engage in activities that could jeopardize its status as an organization exempt from federal income tax. Should a Conflict of Interest exist, the Chairperson of the Board or committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. After exercising due diligence, the Board or committee shall determine whether Theater Labrador can obtain a more advantageous transaction or arrangement with reasonable efforts from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably attainable under circumstances that would not give rise to a conflict of interest, the Board or committees shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the best interest and for its own benefit and whether the transaction or arrangement is fair and reasonable to Theater Labrador and shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement in conformity with such determination.
