Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Prologue Theatre's vision is to use theatre as the catalyst for, and to then sustain, open and inclusive community discussion and discourse. Its mission is to present theatre performances and educational programs that start public conversations about important world issues, challenging the community to examine and discuss their views of the world and those around them.

Prologue Theatre had two full productions in the calendar year 2023 (The Cake and Monsters of the American Cinema), continued its new works series FOREWORD by workshopping three new plays, and was awarded the John Aniello Outstanding Emerging Theatre Company Award by Theatre Washington at the Helen Hayes Awards in May. Like virtually all DC area theatre companies, Prologue continued to struggle post COVID with audience attendance, especially for the summer production.

IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0Current Year Facts and Circumstances: (Additional information is provided in the PDF attachment to this Form 990 filing): ___________________________________________________________________________________ A) Prologue Theatre received its determination letter just 12 months prior to COVID shutdowns, which, for the theatre industry, continued for almost two years. Those restrictions on in person activity were a significant setback to the organization's initial plans for full length productions and substantially impacted both audience and donor development horizons. ___________________________________________________________________________________ B) Solicitation of public support happens consistently before, during, and after each production and following an audience member's attendance at a performance; throughout the performance program and materials in the lobby seen before and after productions; in our social media communication throughout the year, as well as during the traditional end of year campaign. However, as audiences have been slow to return to theatre across the region, it impacts the potential donor base. ___________________________________________________________________________________ C) Finding an amenable landlord as well as the type of commercial space to rent that suits the unique needs of a theatre organization initially took nine months; the unique nature of the space Prologue Theatre currently rents, which provides for rehearsal, building, storage, and meeting space, while also being a walkable distance from public transportation, makes it a critical component to the viability of the organization. ___________________________________________________________________________________ D) Prologue Theatre's Board is thoughtfully made up not of large donors but individuals with a wide breadth of career experiences, business expertise, community volunteer leadership experiences, and a love and commitment to the performing arts which mirrors many in our local community. ___________________________________________________________________________________ E) Prologue Theatre was recognized by its peers for the quality of its productions, audience experience, and contributions to the theatre community by being named the 2023 John Aniello Award recipient for Outstanding Emerging Theatre Company at the Theatre Washington Helen Hayes Awards.
