Last Frontier of Comedy is the 501(c)(3) corporation operating Alaska’s oldest improvised comedy troupe, Scared Scriptless Improv. LFC’s board is looking for fresh perspectives to help set its future course. Directors serve for two years.
LFC’s mission is to “provide opportunities for the public to appreciate the art of live improvised theater, including by attending performances, by directly participating in rehearsals and performances, and through educational opportunities created or fostered by LFC.” Active troupe members vote on board membership, selection of an Artistic Director, and admission of new troupe members.
Board roles and responsibilities include:
- Oversee the mission of LFC and keep it relevant to community needs;
- Foster programs such as improv classes and open workshops;
- Ensure financial solvency of the organization, including risk management;
- Supervise an Artistic Director and Operations Director;
- Ensure feedback and open communication among the troupe, the Artistic Director, and the Board;
Requirements:
- Attend monthly board meetings in Anchorage;
- Attend work sessions or “retreats” as needed;
- Understand the organization and its operations;
- Collaborate and work on projects via email between meetings;
- Work with troupe members and staff members to resolve conflicts, hold elections, and make important decisions;
- Be willing to run the box office for Scared Scriptless shows as needed;
- Have a scrappy and entrepreneurial attitude—we only recently converted to a nonprofit structure and are still building our processes and procedures!
Recommended:
- An enthusiasm for live theater, comedy, or the arts;
- Familiarity with Scared Scriptless and its product;
- Experience in business, nonprofit management, communication, legal/HR compliance, or theater organizations.
Time commitment is approximately 10 hours per month.
