About Manhattan Theatre Club
Under the dynamic leadership of Artistic Director Lynne Meadow and Executive Producer Barry Grove, Manhattan Theatre Club has grown in three decades from a prolific Off-Off Broadway showcase into one of the country’s most acclaimed theatre organizations.
One of the only institutions in the U.S. solely dedicated to producing new plays and musicals, MTC develops and presents works of the highest quality by both established and emerging American and international playwrights.
Founded in 1970, MTC now includes a subscriber base of 20,000 and produces seven plays a year in Broadway's recently restored Biltmore Theatre on West 47th Street and at the historic New York City Center complex on West 55th Street. Each season is distinguished by the variety of the repertoire.
With three performance spaces, the 650-seat Biltmore Theatre and New York City Center's 299-seat Stage I and 150-seat Stage II, MTC offers a wide range of voices and visions in its programming. New York and world premieres created under MTC’s auspices travel across America and around the world.
MTC is committed to bringing theatre to the widest possible audience. Initiatives which enable MTC’s work to reach an ever-growing range of theatgoers include moving successful plays originally produced at MTC’s New York City Center home to larger Broadway or Off Broadway venues for an extended run; originating certain productions in larger venues; collaborating with leading regional theatres to bring major new American plays to New York; and bringing student and family audiences to our theatres through the ambitious Education program.
