Single Carrot Theatre’s

16 year history

To honor the legacy and examine the challenges that “Dean of the Alternative Theatre Scene” faced in Baltimore, we are delighted to share with you Single Carrot Theatre’s Impact Report.

Take a peek at what’s inside!

RUNNING A SMALL THEATRE COMPANY TAKES A HERO (your theatre leaders are not OK)

“Over decades, theatre has increasingly relied on human capital …counting on the fact that there will always be someone desperate for exposure. Let us not forget the industry trope, “the show must go on.” Because of this, in any theatre of any size, the trickle down cost of labor falls on someone’s back.”

Laura Malkus

“The incredible pluck and resilience of Baltimore’s artists in the face of perpetual divestment is a testament to just how strong and brilliant our artistic light is. Imagine how bright that light would shine if our leaders and our funders made seeding a thriving local artist economy their driving goal. Imagine if Baltimore City paid its largest capital grants outright instead of requiring arts institutions large and small to front hundreds of thousands of dollars out of pocket.”

COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS

“As Single Carrot’s Director of Artistic and Community Partnerships, it’s been amazing to partner with so many local communities and individuals. I want to thank all of the organizations that have been a part of SCT’s journey and left an impact on our artists and audiences. I’m so proud to have cultivated these relationships and highlighted just some of the incredible work going on in Baltimore.”
