Jeff Cohen, Dog Run Rep Artistic Director, demonstrated his commitment to the recovery of Lower Manhattan in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks with his internationally acclaimed and Drama Desk Award winning series Tribeca Playhouse Stage Door Canteen. Mr. Cohen and Dog Run Rep have invited three of New York’s most exciting young theatre companies – Abraxas, Studio 42, and Unknown Productions - to celebrate the cultural revitalization of Lower Manhattan. For Financial District workers, neighborhood residents, out-of-town tourists and all New Yorkers, THEATRE AT SOUTH STREET SEAPORT will be another great reason to embrace all that Lower Manhattan and the South Street Seaport has to offer.
Winter Theatre at South Street Seaport is part of Seaport Semester, an eclectic series of classes, performances and programming created for infants, families and seniors, alike, and made possible with the support of General Growth Properties in conjunction with an array of community-based partners, including, but not limited to, Church Street School for Music and Art, Dog Run Rep Theater, Downtown Babies, Montauk Theater Productions, Seaport Music Radio and Tada!
