Mission and programs · 2022
Mission
The mission of The Unusual Suspects Theatre Company is to mentor, educate, and enrich youth in under-resourced communities through the creation of collaborative, original theatre.
-
The Organization now offers five intensive theatre-arts residency programs, including preventative theatre-arts education programs delivered in-class and after-school to Title 1 students, as well as to intergenerational groups of local families, and innovative intervention residencies for justice-system-engaged minors; a sixth program to provide isolated Los Angelenos with access to professional theatre experiences; as well as ongoing professional development services that amplify the Organizations healing-informed approach by cross-training educators, Probation Officers, and other youth-serving organizations. The Organizations suite of programs reached over 1,600 Los Angelenos in pre-pandemic years and still managed to serve nearly 1,000 annually during the pandemic (93% ages 9-19, 98% Black Indigenous and/or People of Color).

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.
