Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Using Shakespeare's works as a cornerstone, Shakespeare Dallas serves the Southwest region with fun and accessible indoor and outdoor theatre, integrated school programs, and cultural enrichment for people of all ages and backgrounds.

  • Seasonal Productions - Shakespeare Dallas presented The Odyssey by Mary Zimmerman (recipient of the TACA Pop-Up Grant for Artistic Excellence), Twelfth Night, and Julius Caesar as part of our Shakespeare in the Park series. Julius Caesar included two sold-out student matinees serving North Texas students, with a strong focus on Title I schools. Overall, the season served more than 30,000 attendees, with 42% of tickets offered free of charge or at significantly reduced prices, reinforcing our commitment to accessibility.

    Expenses $728,747 · Revenue $214,831

  • Education - Our Shakespeare on the Go! educational programming expanded in 2024 to include two age-specific touring productions, student matinees of Julius Caesar, four summer camps, and a variety of master classes and in-school workshops. These efforts reached more than 12,000 students across North Texas, providing hands-on arts enrichment and literacy support aligned with TEKS standards.

    Expenses $88,064 · Revenue $30,112

  • Outreach - Through Shakespeare Unplugged, we presented Wars of the Roses (Henry VI Parts 13 and Richard III) in a staged reading series in partnership with Play On Shakespeare, featuring modern verse translations by Douglas P. Langworthy and Migdalia Cruz. Additional programming included book clubs, pre-show lectures, and members-only events designed to deepen engagement and expand access to classical texts for diverse audiences.

    Expenses $57,115 · Revenue $7,000

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.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility GROUP.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
