Overview
The Lobster Theater Project, also known as Killing My Lobster, provides artists with training and performance opportunities focused on sketch comedy. The organization has been successful in reaching the highly prized 18 to 34-year-old audience demographic, and establishing a regular nine-month performance schedule of quick, sharp, and high-quality comedy theater. Since 2015, the Lobster Theater Project has grown its programmatic offerings and earned revenue and stabilized its staffing structure. A fundraising planning grant help KML’s board and staff develop the skills that they need to pursue the long-term capitalization goals laid out in the organization’s recent strategic plan.
