Moose Hall Theatre Company
Public records show a registered, tax-exempt organization in good standing.
What it says it does
The purpose of Moose Hall Theatre Company is to present theatre works that reflect the diversity of the American and world experience, the activities of drama, dance and music, to be presented in traditional and non-traditional venues for audiences who might not otherwise be drawn to the experience of live performance. Our purpose is also to expose the public to works of emerging playwrights through showcase and other productions, readings and similar activities. In addition, the company provides performance opportunities for professional performing artists of various cultures and origins, particularly those who would not otherwise have an opportunity to present their work in contemporary and classical productions. The core of the company's performance agenda is the Inwood Shakespeare festival which provides free outdoor classical and contemporary theatre in historical Inwood Hill Park in upper Manhattan with a culturally diverse cast in an ethnically diverse neighborhood.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

- $937 spent. Moose Hall Theatre Company brings free outdoor theatre through the Inwood Shakespeare Festival to the Inwood section of New York City, focusing on culturally diverse materials and the use of actors from many ethnic backgrounds. During the 2018 season, no works were presented due to the illness and ultimately the death of the co-producer, costumer, technical producer and outreach coordinator.
