We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

• New York City Players had a robust year of programming in 2024 involving exciting new performance opportunities and collaborations. NYCPS Incoming Theater Divisions 2024 edition significantly expanded the scope and budget of the annual project with a production of Federico Garca Lorcas play LA CASA DE BERNARDA ALBA, directed by Richard Maxwell and performed in Spanish with English supertitles at a site specific excavated storefront in the Financial District of Manhattan. This project was made in partnership and collaboration with the visual artist Christopher Wool, who invited NYCP to use the ground floor of a building he leased in the Financial District for the venue of a show of his own sculptures, See Stop Run, on a different floor there. This opportunity to create a performance especially for the particulars of this raw storefront space coincided with ITDs desire to perform a classic. LA CASA DE BERNARDA ALBA resonated with ITDs mostly female and Spanish- speaking ensemble and the group decided it was best to perform the play in the original Spanish. The play had a sold out run of 10 performances in June of 2024. Also in June, NYCP held its annual Summer School workshop. Summer School is a week-long interdisciplinary training open to participants from all artistic disciplines using Richard Maxwells book on collaboration and performance, "Theater for Beginners" (TCG, 2015). After a hiatus due to the pandemic, the series returned in 2023. Maxwell has led the past two editions with Gillian Walsh at The Brick Aux space in Williamsburg. The 2024 edition was held for 10 participants from June 18th23rd. Summer School provides important access for a diverse group of participants to the companys artmaking process, expanding our NYCP community.In October, NYCP participated in the Toronto International RUTAS festival in staging Documents Perform | Documentos Actan, which invited remote participants to collectively hack and rewrite Canadas Joint Declaration on the Americas Partnership for Economic Prosperity to make it speak to the need for a blueprint that supports sustained artistic co-creation and collaboration in the Americas. The project was an international collaboration between NYCPs Incoming Theater Division, Hemispheric Encounters, and Aluna Theatre. At the conclusion of the performance, the new policy was read aloud in English and Spanish, ratified, and sent to the appropriate federal ministers, with the spectators as witness.Work on the final production of the season began in July with the residency and performances of BUILDINGS I&II (Formerly CODA). Our second collaboration with See Stop Run, BUILDINGS I&II, a two-part play, was staged and built for the 19th floor within Christopher Wools exhibition. Written and directed by Richard Maxwell, the project featured a cast of 8 performers, with 3 members for whom it was their first time performing on the stage. BUILDINGS I&II is the story of a large Irish American family whose patriarch has died leaving behind an asset in the form of an office tower. The play was a response to the exhibition See Stop Run, but it was also a response to the current Wall Street landscape (or commercial real estate everywhere), post pandemic. A landscape that is either mid-catastrophe or in the process of radical rebirth, depending on who you ask.The show had a sold-out run of 13 performances from September 19th October 6th.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
