New Theatre Planning To Relocate From Laguna Street Location

New Theatre Planning to Relocate from Laguna Street Location

New Theatre has just been informed that the current New Theatre space is being purchased and is slated for demolition on January 2, 2012.

 

New Theatre has enjoyed its current intimate space for the last 10 years, but will be moving to continue creating American Theatre history in an alternate location(s). New Theatre's immediate plan calls for their next play to be performed in this space and then to become a traveling theatre for the remainder of the season. At the moment, the Board of Directors and staff are diligently working on finding another intimate theatre space so that they can continue to bring South Florida audiences cutting edge theatre, give voIce To new playwrights, give life to new plays and provide a home for local actors and designers. The long-term goal is to have a new permanent home by the beginning of the 2012-2013 season. Venue(s) will be announced shortly.

New Theatre recently concluded the celebration of their first quarter century, kicked off its exciting 26th Season and looks forward to sharing the next 25 years with the South Florida theatre community.  

Currently in production is Shakespeare's Henry V, which runs through Sept. 10th.
