Mission and programs · 2024

• HATTILOO THEATRE WAS FOUNDED IN 2006, IN MEMPHIS TN IN A STOREFRONT. HATTILOO THEATRE PRODUCES ANNUAL SEASONS OF SEVEN PLAYS/MUSICALS THAT PROVIDE AUDIENCES A CONTEXTUAL UNDERSTANDING OF BLACK LIFE. ROOTED IN BLACK STORYTELLING, HATTILOO'S ACTIVITIES ARE A DIAMETRICAL RESPONSE TO AMERICAN THEATRE THAT HAS LARGELY AND HISTORICALLY BEEN CONCEIVED AS A WHITE AMERICAN ART FORM DESIGNED TO TELL THE STORIES OF WHITE AMERICANS. HATTILOO'S PROGRAMS SHIFT INACCURACIES AROUND BLACK IDENTITY, WHILE SHOWCASING THE BEST THAT BLACK THEATRE HAS TO OFFER.HATTILOO IS ONE OF SEVEN FREE-STANDING BLACK THEATRES IN THE NATION, AND THE ONLY ONE IN THE MID SOUTH. AS SUCH, IT SERVES AS THE PREEMINENT SUPPORTIVE SPACE FOR SOUTHERN BLACK ARTISTS TO HONE THEIR TALENTS AS THEY ARTICULATE THE STRUGGLE, TRIUMPH, AND BEAUTY OF BLACK LIFE THROUGH THEIR CRAFT. HATTILOO USES THE POWER OF UNAPOLOGETIC BLACK STORYTELLING TO EMPOWER RESIDENTS WHO LIVE IN "CULTURAL DESERTS", WHOSE VOICES DEEPEN THE REGION'S CULTURAL NARRATIVE. HATTILOO ALSO SERVES AS A BEACON OF CULTURAL PROGRESS IN MEMPHIS, CHALLENGING SOME MISCONCEPTIONS OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE SOUTHERN AND BLACK.

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. 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. 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.
