In spite of Covid, Theater for the New City is alive and well. We have gone the way of Streaming and Virtual performances since we had to close our doors due to the Corona Virus. We managed to air our first Virtual Lower East Side Festival over the Memorial Day Weekend. Next we streamed each weekend through August our Street Theater for this year... 'Liberty or Just Us and in between and each Thursday continuing to produce Theater for the New City- On Air. Program of new staged readings . We also did our First Virtual Halloween Ball which had over various 90 performers and groups/Bands/companies doing their works including F. Murray Abrams, Phoebe Legere, Penny Arcade, Everett Quinton and others. The most exciting performances ongoing since Early Nov. Has been utilizing our 'Garage' Theater The Chop Shop which has a gate that opens on East 10th Street between East 9th & 10th Streets. We have done Live Revues with various Life Acts every Saturday from 2-3. Have markings on side walk for being Socially distance and Masks made available if you do not have one. Has been very successful and following all guidelines and Audiences have been doing their best to comply as well. We just had this Saturday Dec. 19th, a Christmas Caroling Sing Along.

TNC is rich with artistic minds which comes as a community. Great shows and people to work with. Love to see them showcasing home grown talents/artist. Needs more organizing but over all its a great place to find!
This place is the best kept off-off-Broadway secret. Not one but FOUR theater spaces. Plenty of materials, tools, lights, ladders, and an attentive staff. Highly recommended for all performers!
I went to see the Christmas Carol play with my family. We really enjoyed ourselves the actors are great. Definitely will come to see more plays here again. This is a great place to come by yourself or with a crew. Show was for all ages. Theatre is located in the Lower East side surrounded by restaurants and small shops. Easy to get to by train bus or car. Street parking is limited.
Fantastic!! The production of The Black Whites was one of the best plays I've ever seen!! Must see theatre Theatre For the New City is an incredibly awesome theatre
