FORESTBURGH PLAYHOUSE

About the Theatre

In 1947, an intrepid group of artists from Greenwich Village made their way to the Catskills Mountains. While searching for the perfect locale for a summer theatre, they discovered a beautiful barn nestled in the Town of Forestburgh, New York—at that moment, the Forestburgh Playhouse was born. Also known as the Miracle of the Forest, the Playhouse has continuously presented hundreds of musicals, plays, cabarets and concerts. Scores of actors, directors, dancers, musicians, designers and more have come together each summer to create a magical season of professional live theatre.
