Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

The mission of The Children's Theatre of Cincinnati (TCT) is to educate, entertain and engage audiences of all ages through professional theatrical productions and arts education programming. Our vision is to awaken a lifelong love of theatre in children and the young at heart. Today, The Children's Theatre brings art to life for our audiences through three key programs, TCT MainStage at the Taft Theatre, TCT Academy, and TCT On Tour (including WorkShops). Each season we strive to reach over 200,000 people in our region.

  • TCT MainStage at the Taft Theatre includes daytime performances for school audiences and weekend performances for the public. Four production runs are held each year, with individual shows formatted into one-hour, family-friendly events. For each production, we present seven performances for public audiences and ten performances for school students, reaching almost 103,000 families, children and students annually.

    Expenses $2,510,352 · Revenue $1,594,603

  • TCT Academy offers arts training to children in a variety of disciplines including twelve-week class sessions; one-week themed summer camps for introductory arts makers; our audition-based, one-month STAR Intensive summer programs for children with demonstrated talent and interest in the performing arts; and Academy LIVE! training with a culminating performance opportunity. In addition to learning the arts, a primary objective for these programs is to provide students with the necessary tools to become successful adults.

    Expenses $679,187 · Revenue $391,937

  • TCT On Tour and WorkShops brings the magic of live theatre directly to those who would otherwise be unable to experience it. We tour five productions each season, serving children of all ages with titles taken from classic literature, fairy tales, history, and other works studied in school curricula. This program reaches an additional 60,000 students annually. TCT On Tour productions are educational and entertaining, as well as affordable, for schools and other venues across the board geographic spectrum of Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and beyond.

    Expenses $170,123 · Revenue $104,491

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
