At New York Theatre Workshop, we work relentlessly to empower visionary theatre-makers and bring their work to adventurous audiences through productions, artist workshops, and education and community engagement programs. We're proud to be a home base for many of the most significant theatre-makers of our time, nurturing groundbreaking writers like Nathan Alan Davis and Celine Song alongside powerhouse playwrights like Amy Herzog and Ayad Akhtar. From Rachel Chavkin and Lileana Blain-Cruz to Whitney White, Liesl Tommy, and Rubén Polendo, we empower inimitable auteur-directors and give invaluable support to tremendous talents in the earliest days of their careers. We've maintained decades-long relationships with legendary theatre-makers like Colman Domingo, Ivo van Hove, Dael Orlandersmith, and Caryl Churchill, who have shaped our very understanding of what theatre can be.

Since our founding in 1979, we've produced over 150 fully realized productions including Rent; Homebody/Kabul; Quills; Dirty Blonde; Peter and the Starcatcher; Once; Lazarus; and Merrily We Roll Along.

Enabling our artists to push boundaries generates work like Nat Turner in Jerusalem; Hadestown; Ufot Family Cycle; Hundred Days; What the Constitution Means to Me; Slave Play; Endlings; Kristina Wong, Sweatshop Overlord; On Sugarland; and Here There Are Blueberries. NYTW productions have received a Pulitzer Prize, 29 Tony Awards, 2 Grammy Awards, and numerous Obie, Drama Desk, and Lucille Lortel Awards.

But that's not what we're proudest of. We take the greatest satisfaction from the community we've built and the perspective-shifting experiences we've delivered along the way. We all think that theatre can bring people together, change the conversation, and have a profound impact. We feel fortunate to get to support it. If that sounds like something you're interested in too, we'd love to meet you.
