EastLine Theatre is a nonprofit theatre company that Fire Island News calls “one of the boldest, bravest theatre companies on Long Island.” EastLine aims to create theatre in unlikely spaces while re-examining the canon, exploring modern plays, and bringing original works to the attention of the community.

EastLine returns to the great outdoors for a fourth year of Shakespeare in the Park after tours of Romeo & Juliet, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, and The Merry Wives of Windsor. In recent years, EastLine has produced Prospero (Live!), an original musical based on The Tempest; a sold out, immersive Diary of Anne Frank, a production of Treasure Island that BroadwayWorld said was “bursting at the seams with imagination”; and a production of In the Next Room by Sarah Ruhl that Long Island Theatre Scene said “raises the bar of creativity for all theaters.” EastLine’s season continues in August with the classic comedy Harvey, by Mary Chase at the BACCA Arts Center in Lindenhurst.
