Scores: Legitimacy 100/100 · Effectiveness 88/100

Financials: Revenue $421,898 · Expenditures $463,843

Aultsville Theatre channels an extraordinary 96.7% of expenditures into programming — well above the 66.8% peer median — but a compensation ratio of 70.4% raises questions about staffing costs relative to overall spending. The Cornwall community theatre has grown revenue at 6.77% annually while maintaining perfect governance scores across all legitimacy metrics.

Our Verdict: A well-run community theatre with outstanding program delivery, though donors should note that compensation consumes a disproportionate share of the budget and the organization is currently running a deficit.
