Since 2001 it has been located on West 40th Street, where it provides a variety of services to the actors, directors, producers, and other theatre professionals who work both on and off Broadway. Many of its employees THE PLAYERS are young performers, and a number of them take part in 16 Gramercy Park South events at the Shop’s lovely black-box auditorium. In 2011 Manhattan the store was recognized by a Tony Award for Excellence RECEPTION 6:30, PANEL 7:00 in the Theatre . Not surprisingly, its beneficiaries (among them Admission Free playwrights Eric Bogosian, Moises Kaufman, Lin-Manuel Reservations Requested Miranda, Lynn Nottage, and Theresa Rebeck), have responded with alarm to reports that high rents may force the Shop to relocate or close. Sharing that concern, we joined The Players and such notables as actors Jim Dale, Jeffrey Hardy, and Peter Maloney, and writer Adam Gopnik to rally support for a cultural treasure. DAKIN MATTHEWS ♦ Monday, January 28 We look forward to a special evening with DAKIN MATTHEWS, a versatile artist who is now appearing in Aaron Sorkin’s acclaimed Broadway dramatization of To Kill a Mockingbird.

Our conference this year begins with the assumption that dramaturgy is creative and generative, a way of making. We come together to consider the forms this creativity takes and its implications for the field. Conference chairs Jane Ann Crum and Brian Quirt have invited special guests that provide innovative models of creative dramaturgy: (in order of appearance) Moisés Kaufman, Paul Lazar, Annie-B Parson, and Anne Cattaneo. Liz Engelman has organized eight professional practice forums around the concept of the dramaturg as creator.

  • Summer Shakespeare, Outside and Urban
    June 4, 2010 Summer Shakespeare, Outside and Urban By STEVEN McELROY Joseph Papp first presented free Shakespeare performances in Central Park more than 50 years ago. Today, like heat advisories and smelly subway stations, Shakespeare among the elements is intrinsic to summer in the city. While Papp‟s legacy — the Public Theater presentations at the Delacorte in Central Park — is the best known of the productions, there are myriad offerings from smaller companies, and some of them are already under way. For some purveyors of outdoor theater, the appeal lies partly in one of Papp‟s original goals, to bring Shakespeare to the people. Hip to Hip Theater Company, for example, performs in parks in Queens. “To these people the Delacorte might as well be in Montana,” said Jason Marr, the artistic director. “It appeals to my political sense that we are doing something in the community and for the community.” Several artistic directors said that when admission was free and audiences could wander in and out as they pleased, they were more likely to sample Shakespeare or other classical plays, even if they were unfamiliar. “It brings people in who would not go to see Shakespeare, no matter what level of education,” said Ted Minos, the artistic director of the Inwood Shakespeare Festival. Such settings can also enrich the Shakespeare experience. “Many of the plays have natural outdoor themes because they were all performed outdoors originally, and that‟s something not to forget,” said Stephen Burdman, the artistic director of New York Classical Theater. “Shakespeare‟s language is so nature-oriented, whether he‟s going on and on about fishing, which he does, or we learn about the Forest of Arden” in “As You Like It.” “You hear the frogs croaking and the crickets chirping,” Mr.

  • Administration of Barack Obama, 2016 Remarks on Presenting The
    Administration of Barack Obama, 2016 Remarks on Presenting the National Medal of Arts and the National Humanities Medal September 22, 2016 The President. Thank you! Everybody, please have a seat, have a seat. Thank you so much. Everybody, please sit down. I can tell this is a rowdy crowd. Sit down. [Laughter] Welcome to the White House, everybody. Now, throughout my time here, Michelle and I have tried to make it a priority to promote the arts and the humanities, especially for our young people, and it's because we believe that the arts and the humanities are, in many ways, reflective of our national soul. They're central to who we are as Americans: dreamers and storytellers and innovators and visionaries. They're what helps us make sense of the past, the good and the bad. They're how we chart a course for the future while leaving something of ourselves for the next generation to learn from. And we are here today to honor the very best of their fields, creators who give every piece of themselves to their craft. As Mel Brooks once said—[laughter]—to her—to his writers on "Blazing Saddles," which is a great film: "Write anything you want, because we'll never be heard from again. We will all be arrested for this movie." [Laughter] Now, to be fair, Mel also said, a little more eloquently, that "every human being has hundreds of separate people living inside his skin. And the talent of a writer is his ability to give them their separate names, identities, personalities and have them relate to other characters living within him." And that, I think, is what the arts and the humanities do.

Under this new venture, Club Fugazi—the former home of Steve Silver’s Beach Blanket Babylon—will become the site of a brand-new theatrical experience from the world-renowned circus and arts collective, The 7 Fingers. The intimate and immersive resident production, created by Bay Area natives and The 7 Fingers co-founders Gypsy Snider and Shana Carroll, will serve as a love letter to the City by the Bay. Performances of the new production will begin in Fall 2021. Tickets will go on-sale in late June 2021. Additional details, including upcoming arts initiatives and events from Club Fugazi Experiences, will be announced at a later date.

"This project is a labor of love for all involved,” said Dower. “I launched my career in theater here in San Francisco. Gypsy and Shana are native San Franciscans. To have the opportunity to reanimate a venue with such a rich history, at the very moment we are coming out from under this long, dense cloud, is a powerful and energizing privilege for us.
