THE GARRY MARSHALL THEATRE ALSO HAS BROAD-BASED COMMUNITY SUPPORT, AS WAS EVIDENCED BY THE WELL ATTENDED PERFORMANCES IN OUR SECOND SEASON OF SHOWS. SUBSCRIBERS FROM THE FALCON DAYS HAVE STAYED WITH US TO SEE WHAT THE GARRY MARSHALL THEATRE WILL DO NEXT. AS WELL AS PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER BEEN TO THE FALCON HAVE JOINED US AND ARE RESPONDING ENTHUSIASTICALLY.THE GARRY MARSHALL THEATRE IS FUNDED, AS IS TYPICAL IN THE NON-PROFIT PERFORMING ARTS, BY A COMBINATION OF EARNED AND CONTRIBUTED INCOME. THE GARRY MARSHALL THEATRE IS BETTER SITUATED THAN MOST SMALL THEATERS IN TERMS OF PREDICTED EARNED INCOME, BECAUSE, UNLIKE MOST, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO START AND RUN FOR YEARS WITHOUT A SUBSCRIBER BASE. SUBSCRIPTION ORDERS WERE STRONG FOR OUR SECOND SEASON. SIMILARLY, THE GARRY MARSHALL THEATRE IS BETTER SITUATED THAN MOST SMALL THEATERS WHEN IT COMES TO ANTICIPATED DONATIONS, BECAUSE WELL-KNOWN FRIENDS OF MARSHALL ARE MAKING PUBLIC AND PRIVATE APPEALS FOR THE HOLLYWOOD COMMUNITY TO DONATE TO THE THEATER, IN MEMORY OF THEIR GREAT FRIEND.IN SHORT, THE GARRY MARSHALL THEATRE MET ITS GOALS IN OUR SECOND SEASON AND CLOSED OUT THE SEASON WITH THE GREAT SUCCESS OF THE SPITFIRE GRILL. IN THESE CHALLENGING TIMES WE MARCH ON TO REMAIN A TRUE PUBLIC BENEFIT, AS A NON PROFIT ENTERPRISE.
