Mumma Start planning Association for the Colonial Theatre - Statements of Activities CHRISTOPHER MAZZOLI - KEEN EYE PHOTOGRAPHY SPONSORS Through brand new partnerships with WHYY’s Indie Lens Pop-up and the Royal Opera House On Screen we expanded our programming in the last year. Featuring documentaries seen on the PBS series ‘Independent Lens,’ Indie Lens Pop-Up is designed to engage local residents, leaders, and organizations in discussion about what matters most - from contemporary social issues to family and relationships. We invite you to join us to make friends, share stories, and join the conversation. Our collaboration with the Royal Opera House brings the beauty, splendor, and artistry of London’s Covent Garden to our own screen. For a fraction of the price of a plane ticket, you can enjoy selections from the current 2015-2016 season filmed on location in the Royal Opera House. It’s their most ambitious season to date with 6 operas and 6 ballets. Home to 2 of the world’s great artistic companies, the Royal Opera and Royal Ballet, the Royal Opera House productions include never before seen ballets, highly anticipated opera debuts, and classic revivals. Our programming is important to us but we never forget that people are the foundation of our theatre. Visitors often ask why Phoenixville was able to bounce back from the brink. The theatre’s revival and the people who made it possible are at the top of a list of other events and players critical to the town’s rebirth. Many of those volunteers and people continue to play a crucial role in our ongoing success. Members, donors, patrons, and volunteers of ACT make it possible for this “community treasure” to persist while many other small-town theatres have vanished forever. If you visit for a film, you’ll be greeted by one of our over 200 active volunteers who we celebrate annually at a special volunteer party. While we were putting the final touches on this annual report we mourned the loss of two of those people who made the theatre the vibrant, successful place it is today. Joel Rickenbach and Earl Sitlinger were two volunteers who generously shared with us their love for theatres, film and community. Both men had an extraordinary impact on the organization and our programming in different but important ways. We will miss them dearly. Our Board and Staff continue to consider ways that our imminent building expansion will inform our future programming, improve treasured relationships and build new ones, and impact our historic theatre’s role within the region. In the meantime, we’ll continue to bring you the kind of films and performances you love and have come to expect from the Colonial. Thank you again for all you bring to the Colonial. Enjoy this look back at our year and we will see you here soon! Board of Directors and Staff of ACT Blobfest 16 We had the best Blobfest ever!! Okay, we say that every year, but for sure this was the best. We’d like to thank all the volunteers, the vendors and our special guests: Mr. Lobo, Ghoul a Go-Go and dearest Ricou Browning - THE Creature from the Black Lagoon!! This year our sponsors made so much possible. A special thank you to Horizon Services, Salena Salon, Mainstay Inn and Shorty’s Sunflower Café and Truck Stop. The weather was perfect for the always great costume contest and our wonderful shop owners went way overboard with their façade and window dressings. If you missed the amazing costumes or the windows in town, be sure to make the next Blobfest on July 8-10, 2016. The ‘fest could not happen without our talented and dedicated Blobfest Programming Committee (Andee Miskiewicz, Shane Stone, Joan Kelly, Cynyth Petersheim and Chuck Francisco); our supremely organized Blobfest Volunteer Leadership Committee (Denise Nissle, John and Carla Schaeffer, Chuck Francisco, Curtis Schmitt, Maryanne Buschini and John Odell); and the over 60 volunteers who sell t-shirts, popcorn and movie tickets and usher so that our visitors have a wonderful experience. The Bacon Brothers 11thAnnual Members’ Party On Oscar ™ night 2015 our members once again came out in their full regalia – black tie, movie-related costume and pajamas, to be precise - to fete the Colonial family of members. Lou Amici, a member for 15 years, is always dapper in his Mummers costume; Team Enigma impresses every year with their fantastic group costumes; and the Mudd Family has made this event an annual family outing for many years. Our members are our family and we are thrilled to celebrate them, and the movies, year after year! A Benefit Concert for Conservation and Culture June 2015 The Colonial Theatre joined with French & Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust again in June to present the Bacon Brothers. Both of our organizations maintain built and natural landmarks that contribute to Chester County’s uniqueness and we share many of the same, wonderfully generous supporters. Culture and conservation enrich all of our lives. We are glad to celebrate both through this annual event – a near sell-out this year that featured a surprise video during the performance! The 8th Annual Robert Burns Memorial Whisky Tasting Whisky tasting at the Colonial has become a well-loved practice and what better way to celebrate Robbie Burns’ birthday. Our Mistress of Ceremonies Riannon Walsh always keeps the evening fresh with new choices of single malts from different countries. Were you here? Did you love that award winning Japanese single malt? The whisky tasting proceeds help support our Classic Film Series. Special thanks to our committee members - Jim Lolli, Dick Lusch, David Wierz, Eric Shopf, Tom Bromley and Janet Lewis. Join us for the 9th annual event on January 29, 2016.

Stoviak Michele and Robert Tornetta Valley Forge Catering Company, Inc. ATOS Conference In July, ACT welcomed over 400 visitors from across the country to Phoenixville and the Colonial Theatre. The American Theatre Organ Society (ATOS) members, attending their annual conference in Wilmington, came to experience the wonder that is the 3/24 Wurlitzer Opus 585 theatre pipe organ, owned and maintained by the Theatre Organ Society of the Delaware Valley (TOSDV). On July 3rd the group traveled in 12 buses up from Wilmington for a concert with renowned organist Mark Herman. Back again on Saturday July 4th, the Colonial hosted the young organist competition, held each year at the conferences and featuring young talent from across the country. Many thanks to Theatre Organ Society of the Delaware Valley for organizing this wonderful event. 27 Film Sponsorship Film sponsorship is a unique, creative, and entertaining way for businesses and individuals to support the Colonial. It plays a crucial role in allowing us to continue to program our repertory film series as well as our festivals (Blobfest and Splatterfest) by offsetting screening costs such as screening rights, shipping, and overhead. Sponsorships often include participatory activities for patrons, such as face painting, hair styling, raffles and giveaways… even a snack lounge in our third floor screening room! We had a record number of sponsored films this year thanks to our 2014-15 sponsors! 15 6 2014-15 The Cultural Alliance report also makes some recommendations for the future that we’re heartened to find we’ve already enacted. To succeed in a rapidly shifting landscape it urges theatres to maintain focus on individuals, engage new audiences, and ensure that cultural experiences are ‘socially relevant.’ Shorty’s Sunflower Café and Truck Stop 2013-14 Salena Salon Perched here on the northern corner of Chester County, nearly sitting on the neighboring Montgomery County line, Phoenixville’s Colonial Theatre is part of a region legendary for great arts and cultural programming. Our community theatre happens to be a member of the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance. As we were working on this Annual Report, the Alliance revealed its impressive 2015 Culture Across Communities document: an 11-city report detailing trends in organizations like ours. Happily, its findings reveal that our own performance reflects some regional trends. For example, revenue growth from memberships has been strong regionally and we’ve seen some growth in the Colonial Theatre’s membership in this report’s fiscal year.

Mumma Start planning Association for the Colonial Theatre - Statements of Activities CHRISTOPHER MAZZOLI - KEEN EYE PHOTOGRAPHY SPONSORS Through brand new partnerships with WHYY’s Indie Lens Pop-up and the Royal Opera House On Screen we expanded our programming in the last year. Featuring documentaries seen on the PBS series ‘Independent Lens,’ Indie Lens Pop-Up is designed to engage local residents, leaders, and organizations in discussion about what matters most - from contemporary social issues to family and relationships. We invite you to join us to make friends, share stories, and join the conversation. Our collaboration with the Royal Opera House brings the beauty, splendor, and artistry of London’s Covent Garden to our own screen. For a fraction of the price of a plane ticket, you can enjoy selections from the current 2015-2016 season filmed on location in the Royal Opera House. It’s their most ambitious season to date with 6 operas and 6 ballets. Home to 2 of the world’s great artistic companies, the Royal Opera and Royal Ballet, the Royal Opera House productions include never before seen ballets, highly anticipated opera debuts, and classic revivals. Our programming is important to us but we never forget that people are the foundation of our theatre. Visitors often ask why Phoenixville was able to bounce back from the brink. The theatre’s revival and the people who made it possible are at the top of a list of other events and players critical to the town’s rebirth. Many of those volunteers and people continue to play a crucial role in our ongoing success. Members, donors, patrons, and volunteers of ACT make it possible for this “community treasure” to persist while many other small-town theatres have vanished forever. If you visit for a film, you’ll be greeted by one of our over 200 active volunteers who we celebrate annually at a special volunteer party. While we were putting the final touches on this annual report we mourned the loss of two of those people who made the theatre the vibrant, successful place it is today. Joel Rickenbach and Earl Sitlinger were two volunteers who generously shared with us their love for theatres, film and community. Both men had an extraordinary impact on the organization and our programming in different but important ways. We will miss them dearly. Our Board and Staff continue to consider ways that our imminent building expansion will inform our future programming, improve treasured relationships and build new ones, and impact our historic theatre’s role within the region. In the meantime, we’ll continue to bring you the kind of films and performances you love and have come to expect from the Colonial. Thank you again for all you bring to the Colonial. Enjoy this look back at our year and we will see you here soon! Board of Directors and Staff of ACT Blobfest 16 We had the best Blobfest ever!! Okay, we say that every year, but for sure this was the best. We’d like to thank all the volunteers, the vendors and our special guests: Mr. Lobo, Ghoul a Go-Go and dearest Ricou Browning - THE Creature from the Black Lagoon!! This year our sponsors made so much possible. A special thank you to Horizon Services, Salena Salon, Mainstay Inn and Shorty’s Sunflower Café and Truck Stop. The weather was perfect for the always great costume contest and our wonderful shop owners went way overboard with their façade and window dressings. If you missed the amazing costumes or the windows in town, be sure to make the next Blobfest on July 8-10, 2016. The ‘fest could not happen without our talented and dedicated Blobfest Programming Committee (Andee Miskiewicz, Shane Stone, Joan Kelly, Cynyth Petersheim and Chuck Francisco); our supremely organized Blobfest Volunteer Leadership Committee (Denise Nissle, John and Carla Schaeffer, Chuck Francisco, Curtis Schmitt, Maryanne Buschini and John Odell); and the over 60 volunteers who sell t-shirts, popcorn and movie tickets and usher so that our visitors have a wonderful experience. The Bacon Brothers 11thAnnual Members’ Party On Oscar ™ night 2015 our members once again came out in their full regalia – black tie, movie-related costume and pajamas, to be precise - to fete the Colonial family of members. Lou Amici, a member for 15 years, is always dapper in his Mummers costume; Team Enigma impresses every year with their fantastic group costumes; and the Mudd Family has made this event an annual family outing for many years. Our members are our family and we are thrilled to celebrate them, and the movies, year after year! A Benefit Concert for Conservation and Culture June 2015 The Colonial Theatre joined with French & Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust again in June to present the Bacon Brothers. Both of our organizations maintain built and natural landmarks that contribute to Chester County’s uniqueness and we share many of the same, wonderfully generous supporters. Culture and conservation enrich all of our lives. We are glad to celebrate both through this annual event – a near sell-out this year that featured a surprise video during the performance! The 8th Annual Robert Burns Memorial Whisky Tasting Whisky tasting at the Colonial has become a well-loved practice and what better way to celebrate Robbie Burns’ birthday. Our Mistress of Ceremonies Riannon Walsh always keeps the evening fresh with new choices of single malts from different countries. Were you here? Did you love that award winning Japanese single malt? The whisky tasting proceeds help support our Classic Film Series. Special thanks to our committee members - Jim Lolli, Dick Lusch, David Wierz, Eric Shopf, Tom Bromley and Janet Lewis.

The American Theatre Organ Society (ATOS) members, attending their annual conference in Wilmington, came to experience the wonder that is the 3/24 Wurlitzer Opus 585 theatre pipe organ, owned and maintained by the Theatre Organ Society of the Delaware Valley (TOSDV). On July 3rd the group traveled in 12 buses up from Wilmington for a concert with renowned organist Mark Herman. Back again on Saturday July 4th, the Colonial hosted the young organist competition, held each year at the conferences and featuring young talent from across the country. Many thanks to Theatre Organ Society of the Delaware Valley for organizing this wonderful event. 27 Film Sponsorship Film sponsorship is a unique, creative, and entertaining way for businesses and individuals to support the Colonial. It plays a crucial role in allowing us to continue to program our repertory film series as well as our festivals (Blobfest and Splatterfest) by offsetting screening costs such as screening rights, shipping, and overhead. Sponsorships often include participatory activities for patrons, such as face painting, hair styling, raffles and giveaways… even a snack lounge in our third floor screening room! We had a record number of sponsored films this year thanks to our 2014-15 sponsors! 15 6 2014-15 The Cultural Alliance report also makes some recommendations for the future that we’re heartened to find we’ve already enacted. To succeed in a rapidly shifting landscape it urges theatres to maintain focus on individuals, engage new audiences, and ensure that cultural experiences are ‘socially relevant.’ Shorty’s Sunflower Café and Truck Stop 2013-14 Salena Salon Perched here on the northern corner of Chester County, nearly sitting on the neighboring Montgomery County line, Phoenixville’s Colonial Theatre is part of a region legendary for great arts and cultural programming. Our community theatre happens to be a member of the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance. As we were working on this Annual Report, the Alliance revealed its impressive 2015 Culture Across Communities document: an 11-city report detailing trends in organizations like ours. Happily, its findings reveal that our own performance reflects some regional trends. For example, revenue growth from memberships has been strong regionally and we’ve seen some growth in the Colonial Theatre’s membership in this report’s fiscal year.

The ‘fest could not happen without our talented and dedicated Blobfest Programming Committee (Andee Miskiewicz, Shane Stone, Joan Kelly, Cynyth Petersheim and Chuck Francisco); our supremely organized Blobfest Volunteer Leadership Committee (Denise Nissle, John and Carla Schaeffer, Chuck Francisco, Curtis Schmitt, Maryanne Buschini and John Odell); and the over 60 volunteers who sell t-shirts, popcorn and movie tickets and usher so that our visitors have a wonderful experience. The Bacon Brothers 11thAnnual Members’ Party On Oscar ™ night 2015 our members once again came out in their full regalia – black tie, movie-related costume and pajamas, to be precise - to fete the Colonial family of members. Lou Amici, a member for 15 years, is always dapper in his Mummers costume; Team Enigma impresses every year with their fantastic group costumes; and the Mudd Family has made this event an annual family outing for many years. Our members are our family and we are thrilled to celebrate them, and the movies, year after year! A Benefit Concert for Conservation and Culture June 2015 The Colonial Theatre joined with French & Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust again in June to present the Bacon Brothers. Both of our organizations maintain built and natural landmarks that contribute to Chester County’s uniqueness and we share many of the same, wonderfully generous supporters. Culture and conservation enrich all of our lives. We are glad to celebrate both through this annual event – a near sell-out this year that featured a surprise video during the performance! The 8th Annual Robert Burns Memorial Whisky Tasting Whisky tasting at the Colonial has become a well-loved practice and what better way to celebrate Robbie Burns’ birthday. Our Mistress of Ceremonies Riannon Walsh always keeps the evening fresh with new choices of single malts from different countries. Were you here? Did you love that award winning Japanese single malt? The whisky tasting proceeds help support our Classic Film Series. Special thanks to our committee members - Jim Lolli, Dick Lusch, David Wierz, Eric Shopf, Tom Bromley and Janet Lewis.

The American Theatre Organ Society (ATOS) members, attending their annual conference in Wilmington, came to experience the wonder that is the 3/24 Wurlitzer Opus 585 theatre pipe organ, owned and maintained by the Theatre Organ Society of the Delaware Valley (TOSDV). On July 3rd the group traveled in 12 buses up from Wilmington for a concert with renowned organist Mark Herman. Back again on Saturday July 4th, the Colonial hosted the young organist competition, held each year at the conferences and featuring young talent from across the country. Many thanks to Theatre Organ Society of the Delaware Valley for organizing this wonderful event. 27 Film Sponsorship Film sponsorship is a unique, creative, and entertaining way for businesses and individuals to support the Colonial. It plays a crucial role in allowing us to continue to program our repertory film series as well as our festivals (Blobfest and Splatterfest) by offsetting screening costs such as screening rights, shipping, and overhead. Sponsorships often include participatory activities for patrons, such as face painting, hair styling, raffles and giveaways… even a snack lounge in our third floor screening room! We had a record number of sponsored films this year thanks to our 2014-15 sponsors! 15 6 2014-15 The Cultural Alliance report also makes some recommendations for the future that we’re heartened to find we’ve already enacted. To succeed in a rapidly shifting landscape it urges theatres to maintain focus on individuals, engage new audiences, and ensure that cultural experiences are ‘socially relevant.’ Shorty’s Sunflower Café and Truck Stop 2013-14 Salena Salon Perched here on the northern corner of Chester County, nearly sitting on the neighboring Montgomery County line, Phoenixville’s Colonial Theatre is part of a region legendary for great arts and cultural programming. Our community theatre happens to be a member of the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance. As we were working on this Annual Report, the Alliance revealed its impressive 2015 Culture Across Communities document: an 11-city report detailing trends in organizations like ours. Happily, its findings reveal that our own performance reflects some regional trends. For example, revenue growth from memberships has been strong regionally and we’ve seen some growth in the Colonial Theatre’s membership in this report’s fiscal year.

Special Events Horizon Services 2012-13 Dear Friends SPONSORS Through brand new partnerships with WHYY’s Indie Lens Pop-up and the Royal Opera House On Screen we expanded our programming in the last year. Featuring documentaries seen on the PBS series ‘Independent Lens,’ Indie Lens Pop-Up is designed to engage local residents, leaders, and organizations in discussion about what matters most - from contemporary social issues to family and relationships. We invite you to join us to make friends, share stories, and join the conversation. Our collaboration with the Royal Opera House brings the beauty, splendor, and artistry of London’s Covent Garden to our own screen. For a fraction of the price of a plane ticket, you can enjoy selections from the current 2015-2016 season filmed on location in the Royal Opera House. It’s their most ambitious season to date with 6 operas and 6 ballets. Home to 2 of the world’s great artistic companies, the Royal Opera and Royal Ballet, the Royal Opera House productions include never before seen ballets, highly anticipated opera debuts, and classic revivals. Our programming is important to us but we never forget that people are the foundation of our theatre. Visitors often ask why Phoenixville was able to bounce back from the brink. The theatre’s revival and the people who made it possible are at the top of a list of other events and players critical to the town’s rebirth. Many of those volunteers and people continue to play a crucial role in our ongoing success. Members, donors, patrons, and volunteers of ACT make it possible for this “community treasure” to persist while many other small-town theatres have vanished forever. If you visit for a film, you’ll be greeted by one of our over 200 active volunteers who we celebrate annually at a special volunteer party. While we were putting the final touches on this annual report we mourned the loss of two of those people who made the theatre the vibrant, successful place it is today. Joel Rickenbach and Earl Sitlinger were two volunteers who generously shared with us their love for theatres, film and community. Both men had an extraordinary impact on the organization and our programming in different but important ways. We will miss them dearly. Our Board and Staff continue to consider ways that our imminent building expansion will inform our future programming, improve treasured relationships and build new ones, and impact our historic theatre’s role within the region. In the meantime, we’ll continue to bring you the kind of films and performances you love and have come to expect from the Colonial. Thank you again for all you bring to the Colonial. Enjoy this look back at our year and we will see you here soon! Board of Directors and Staff of ACT Blobfest 16 We had the best Blobfest ever!! Okay, we say that every year, but for sure this was the best. We’d like to thank all the volunteers, the vendors and our special guests: Mr. Lobo, Ghoul a Go-Go and dearest Ricou Browning - THE Creature from the Black Lagoon!! This year our sponsors made so much possible. A special thank you to Horizon Services, Salena Salon, Mainstay Inn and Shorty’s Sunflower Café and Truck Stop.
