BACKGROUND <br /> In March 2018, following a Request for Proposals process, an agreement was entered <br /> into between the City of Pleasanton and TVRT to produce two professional musicals in <br /> the Firehouse Arts Center in fiscal year 2018/19—one in the fall and one in the spring. <br /> Each production contained eight shows with evening and matinee performances. Adult, <br /> child and senior ticket prices were offered for each show. TVRT's first Pleasanton <br /> production of Guys and Dolls closed November 18 and 96% of the available tickets <br /> were sold, generating $58,044 in ticket sales. <br /> Tri-Valley Repertory Theatre is a non-profit 501(c)3 corporation—a volunteer <br /> organization dedicated to providing affordable quality theatre, theatrical training, a <br /> showcase for talent, and a cultural experience within the Tri-Valley and East Bay <br /> communities. TVRT is currently in their 37th year of providing professional quality <br /> musical theater and in their 31st year of providing a true community chorus. Attendance <br /> at their various productions exceeded 12,000 people annually before the pandemic. <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> The proposed Second Amendment to the Services Agreement with Tri-Valley Repertory <br /> Theatre extends the contract through June 30, 2022, with adjusted terms that reflect <br /> one professional musical rather than two, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The contract <br /> will not exceed $60,000. If the Second Amendment to the Services Agreement is <br /> approved, TVRT's Spring 2022 production will be Damn Yankees, and run from the end <br /> of April through mid-May at the Firehouse Arts Center. <br /> Given the very high quality of Tri-Valley Repertory Theatre's work and their outstanding <br /> success as a local Pleasanton business for 37 years, staff recommends extending the <br /> contract for FY 2021/22. <br /> Submitted by: Fiscal Review: Approved <br /> Heidi Murphy Tina Olson Nelson Fialho <br /> Director of Library and Recreation Director of Finance City Manager <br /> Attachments: <br /> 1.
