The A.R.T./New York Theatres opened in January 2017 as a way for A.R.T./New York to address the continued struggle for theatre companies to find affordable performance spaces in Manhattan. Our two performance venues have several different seating configurations at various capacities—depending on the layout, the Jeffrey and Paula Gural Theatre can seat up to 87 audience members and the Mezzanine Theatre can seat up to 149. Since opening, we have hosted more than 175 theatrical productions featuring work from more than 5,000 artists and welcomed more than 160,000 audience members.
The theatres are modern, highly flexible performance spaces with state-of-the-art lighting, sound, and video equipment to support the diverse artistic disciplines of our member theatres. The flexible seating can be configured for each company’s artistic desires, and the floors are suitable for dance.
In addition to being LEED Silver, the A.R.T./New York Theatres are fully accessible for audiences, artists, and technical staff alike and feature Wi-Fi equipped lobbies that can be used as special event spaces.
We hope to see you soon!
