Just curious as to what the average number of shows is for community theaters.

Well, I screwed that up . . . before reading Red Diva's post, I thought the question had to do with how many shows we AS INDIVIDUALS do, not the theatre's season.  The theatres I'm involved with do 5-6 non-children's shows per year, so I should have picked that one.  I actually picked 1-2, which is how many I do.

We've only been able to do as many shows as we do because we just now have enough qualified people to direct that many. When we started it was only 1 or 2 shows a year because we only had that many that could direct.

We do 5 main stage shows that are part of our regular patron package then we do either one or two "second stage" shows that are usually more for us... more risky or cutting edge type.

We are a small theater and as such only have one stage.  We do 5 shows a year, 2 musicals and 3 straight plays.

We produce a four play season and a fifth show in late summer.  That fifth is either a comedy, a musical, a concert, a variety show - it changes every year.  Also, we own our own building and are a 500 seat year round operation so we have time on our calendar to do many other things that include renting the space.  We also do some presenting of a small artist series.  The presenting events help to supplement our revenues.  Some of those have included some big band stuff like Buddy Morrow & the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra and Larry O'Brien & the Glenn Miller Orchestra.  Folk music has been very successful too.  We have presented Leo Kottke, Greg Brown with Pieta Brown & Bo Ramsey, Roger McGuinn (former lead singer and songwriter for The Byrds).  The great thing about the presenting and rentals is that we're getting people in our venue that do not normally come to the theatre.  Once they've been here, many of them come back for one of our own plays.

The big musical is in the summer.
There is a smaller musical either late fall or early spring.
A community chorus concert.
And 3 or 4 straight plays.

Each year my theatre does 1 big full-scale musical or production, 1 night of Halloween Plays, 1 or 2 Children's Plays and 8-12 plays in a One Act Festival. This means that yearly we do 10-16 productions
