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. 243003 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 7 0 true 10 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 7 6 false false false false false false false true false false false true true false true false false false false false NY X Organization 2126001250 400 W 43rd St 30D New York NY 10036 Richard Maxwell Artistic Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 91985 0 0 Brian Mendes President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Molly Grogan Secretary/Treas 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Monica de la Torre Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Christopher Wool Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Williams Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Rob Weiner Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Regina Vorria Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 91985 0 false false false 0 31775 182166 213941 Box office ticket sales 711110 39414 39414 Commissioning income 711110 3050 3050 Development fee 711110 3100 3100 Education income 711110 9625 9625 Performance fees 711110 4130 4130 59319 0 0 17 17 0 0 0 0 0 Merchandise/Book/Script sales 711110 538 538 538 273815 59874 X 0 0 0 0 91985 78187 9199 4599 0 44827 36412 7713 702 0 3715 3112 459 144 11274 9443 1394 437 0 0 6202 6202 0 0 0 70732 52839 17893 334 334 4520 2987 1152 381 0 0 12353 12353 20052 20052 0 0 0 0 56 45 8 3 1816 1816 Costumes, props and sets 9673 9673 Production costs 7269 7269 Storage 5255 5255 Dues and subscriptions 1980 1466 514 2811 1760 928 123 294854 243003 45462 6389 55548 76719 0 58020 11100 2400 0 0 0 0 1483 1280 111379 111379 56 0 0 0 0 0 875 1800 115982 93299 7248 7469 1865 9113 7469 X 106869 85830 106869 85830 115982 93299 -21039 X true X false false false X 108860 152349 198144 183887 213941 857181 20000 51749 28043 112561 59857 272210 0 0 0 128860 204098 226187 296448 273798 1129391 10500 21750 32766 27405 101950 194371 0 10500 21750 32766 27405 101950 194371 935020 51 43 23 17 134 0 51 43 23 17 134 0 2403 607 2685 177 5872 131314 204748 228872 296648 273815 1135397 0.82350 0.87050 0.00010 0.00020 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 111379 111379 X Part X : FIN48 Footnote Management has evaluated all income tax positions and concluded that no disclosures relating to uncertain tax positions are required in the financial statements.
