Brooklyn Tobacco Warehouse to Become St. Anne's Theatre Center

With an endorsement from The National Park Service,  the Brooklyn Bridge Park Corporation is set to continiue plans to make the Brooklyn Tobacco Warehouse into St. Ann's Warehouse. If things go as planed, The Warehouse will be converted into two separate performance spaces. Still, more approvals are needed to make the theatre a reality.

St. Ann's Warehouse is celebrating its 30th Anniversary Season! For 30 years, St. Ann’s Warehouse has commissioned, produced, and presented a unique and eclectic body of innovative theatre and concert presentations that meet at the intersection of theatre and rock and roll. Since 2000, the organization has helped vitalize the Brooklyn Waterfront in DUMBO, where St. Ann’s Warehouse has become one of New York City’s most important and compelling live performance destinations. 

 

Through its signature multi-artist concerts and groundbreaking music and theatre collaborations, St. Ann’s continues to celebrate the panoramic traditions of American and world cultures, with forays into a variety of contemporary forms, including new commissions and multi-disciplinary theatrical presentations. Among the many acclaimed St. Ann’s productions are Lou Reed and John Cale’s Songs for Drella, Marianne Faithfull’s Seven Deadly Sins, Artistic Director Susan Feldman’s Band in Berlin, Charlie Kaufman and the Coen Brothers’ Theater of the New Ear, The Royal Court Theatre’s 4:48 Psychosis, The Wooster Group’sHamlet, The Emperor Jones, House/Lights, To You, The Birdie!(Phèdre), The Globe Theatre’s Measure for Measure, Daniel Kramer’s Woyzeck, Antony’s Turning, Mabou Mines DollHouse, Lou Reed’s Berlin, Cynthia Hopkins’ Accidental Trilogy, Les Freres Corbusier’s Hell House, Druid's The Walworth Farce and The New Electric Ballroom, TR Warszawa's Macbeth, The National Theatre of Scotland’s Black Watch, and Kneehigh Theatre’s Brief Encounter. 

In 2004, founding Artistic Director, Susan Feldman, and St. Ann’s Warehouse were awarded the Ross Wetzsteon Award for the development of new work and for “inviting artists to treat their cavernous DUMBO space as both an inspiring laboratory and a sleek venue where its superinformed audience charges the atmosphere with hip vitality.”
