THE SEASON INCLUDED THE LARGEST COMPANY OF ACTORS AND PRODUCTION ARTISTS CATF HAS EVER EMPLOYED. THE FESTIVAL PRODUCED PLAYS ABOUT RACISM, POLICE BRUTALITY, MENTAL WELLNESS, CLIMATE EVOLUTION, AND ISSUES OF REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS. WHILE CATF DID NOT EXPERIENCE THE FULL CAPACITY RETURN OF THEIR AUDIENCE, GUESTS DID ATTEND. THE AUDIENCE DID NOT ATTEND THE SIX SHOWS TO FULL CAPACITY AND CATF SAW MORE SINGLE TICKET BUYERS THAN SUBSCRIBERS.THE AUDIENCE WAS INCREDIBLY RECEPTIVE AND CRITICS WERE POSITIVE ABOUT THE PLAYS. AUDIENCE MEMBERS WORE MASKS AND ADHERED TO ALL COVID SAFETY PROTOCOLS AS DID THE COMPANY MEMBERS. FORTUNATELY, CATF DID NOT CANCEL ANY PERFORMANCES DUE TO COVID RELATED ILLNESSES. CATF WAS WELL EQUIPPED WITH PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT AND HAD THOUSANDS OF RAPID TESTS TO SHARE WITH THE COMPANY. THE COMPANY TESTED TWO-THREE TIMES A WEEK. FATIQUE AND MANAGING LONG WORK HOURS ADDED TO THE STRESS OF PRODUCING SIX SHOWS IN REPERTORY DURING THIS REBUILDING TIME.CATF DID NOT OFFER THE FULL SERIES OF TALKTHEATER EVENTS DUE TO COVID SAFETY CONCERNS BUT MANY OF THE USUAL EVENTS SURROUNDING THE PLAY REPERTORY DID OCCUR. POST SHOW DISCUSSIONS WERE OFTEN HELD WITHOUT ACTORS. LUNCH AND ART BECAME AN EVENT DURING WHICH GUESTS COULD BRING A BAG LUNCH INSTEAD OF ENJOYING A CATF SERVED BUFFET. AGAIN, THE ADDITIONAL PROGRAM WAS NOT AS FULLY ATTENDED AS THEY HAD BEEN PRIOR TO THE PANDEMIC BUT AUDIENCES DID ATTEND.CATF SAW SIGNIFICANT STAFF CHANGE AS WELL. FOUNDER, ED HERENDEEN RETIRED AND PEGGY MCKOWEN BECAME THE NEW ARTISTIC DIRECTOR. CATF HELD A NATIONAL SEARCH FOR A NEW MANAGING DIRECTOR. JEFF GRIFFIN BEGAN AS MANAGING DIRECTION DURING THE WHIRLWIND OF JULY. STAFF FOCUSED ON A WELLNESS PLAN COMING INTO THE COVID PROTOCOL SEASON AND COMMITTED TO A STAGETIC MISSION OF BECOMING AN ANTI-RACIST AND ANTI-OPPRESSIVE ORGANIZATION.MAJOR CHANGES ARE TAKING PLACE QUICKLY AT CATF AND THE FESTIVAL IS MOVING INTO A TRANFORMATIONAL TIME. SINCE THE FESTIVAL'S FOUNDING IN 1991, CATF HAS GROWN IN NATIONAL REPUTATION AND IS HIGHLY REGARDED AS ONE OF AMERICA'S IMPORTANT NEW PLAY DEVELOPMENT CENTERS. EACH YEAR PATRONS COME FROM OVER 38 STATES AND MULTIPLE COUNTRIES TO PARTICIPATE IN THE BIRTH OF DARING NEW WORK. NUMEROUS REVIEWS, ARTICLES, AND FEATURE STORIES HAVE APPEARED IN MEDIA VENUES ACROSS THE COUNTRY INCLUDING THE WASHINGTON POST, THE BALTIMORE SUN, NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, THE NEW YORK TIMES, AMERICAN THEATRE MAGAZINE, AND THE NEW YORKER. 98984 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 41 0 1 136 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 28 27 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 WV MD VA X X THE ORGANIZATION 6812404043 SHEPHERD UNIVERSITY SHEPHERDSTOWN WV 25443 MARELLEN AHERNE PRESIDENT 2.00 X X 0 0 0 STEPHANIE MATHIAS VICE PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 KAKIE MCMILLAN VICE PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 ANN M HARKINS TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 ALAN N YOUNT SECRETARY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 SHARON J ANDERSON TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 ANDY ARNOLD TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 BETH K BATDORF TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARY BRADSHAW TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 ALLISON MARINOFF CARLE TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 JAMES EROS TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 NANCY FELDMAN TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 HANS FOGLE TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DR MARY HENDRIX TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DIANA HORVAT TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 PAUL KESSLER TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 TRIPP LOWE TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 ELIZABETH MCDONALD TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 SUSAN MILLS TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 FRANKLIN MOORE TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DAVID RAMPY TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 PATRICIA RISSLER TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 AUDREY ROWE TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 FALYNN SCHMIDT TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 RICK SHAFFER TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DAVID EMERSON TONEY TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DEBBIE VENEY TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 PEGGY MCKOWEN PRODUCING DIRECTOR 40.00 X 95615 0 0 95615 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 100810 100810 BOX OFFICE 711110 930 930 930 65 65 OTHER 900099 8958 8958 8958 110763 930 0 9023 6800 3944 1797 1059 77537 67181 6516 3840 2030 1225 608 197 9625 5810 2881 934 6406 3867 1918 621 1438 1438 575 575 180 180 2038 1750 275 13 3395 3395 1332 1332 6374 5599 775 101 25 76 2575 1614 961 GRAPHIC DESIGN 4400 4400 COMPANY EXPENSES 1551 1551 OTHER 685 685 CONCESSIONS AND OTHER 454 454 52 52 127548 98984 21900 6664 552774 516278 68511 80811 68022 72772 1058 1059 80907 27491 53416 53416 595162 595162 1338943 1319498 17554 14237 41012 41669 58566 55906 X 361229 344444 919148 919148 1280377 1263592 1338943 1319498 -16785 0 X 0 0 0 X 698443 1037024 1071443 1578166 100810 4485886 848200 2570 9235 460323 930 1321258 238850 52810 39211 264924 0 595795 1785493 1092404 1119889 2303413 101740 6402939 0 0 0 6402939 46969 22706 70 76 65 69886 46969 22706 70 76 65 69886 17028 2251 2624 8242 8958 39103 1849490 1117361 1122583 2311731 110763 6511928 0.98330 0.98470 0.01070 0.01050 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 739679 739679 857558 -105679 12200 739679 754051 333 114974 11800 857558 743493 22508 11950 754051 758125 390 -72 14950 743493 1.00000 1 0 2490 1778 712 75235 24061 51174 3182 1652 1530 53416 BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN SHEPHERD UNIVERSITY ENDOWMENTS 595162 595162 FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 2 DR.
