Overall quality is excellent and adventurous, both in new works and its choice of revivals. The company always had an adventurous streak in hiring new directors but whoever is making the decision in their casting is putting the company on the map. Excellent actors want to work there.
If you transfer to the N/R it will take you to the Barclay Center stop and the theater is a couple of blocks away. Barclay's Center stop can be a challenge, however, for people with mobility issues. A major design flaw in a major culture/entertainment hub.
Many good restaurants nearby and even better ones with a wide price range in the Ft. Greene area which is a bit of walk from the theater but lovely and very fun, especially in the summer.
The theater's only downside is that the new space has a cramped lobby but in the summer it has a large plaza where one can hang out before the performances.
The other must-visit in the area is The Center for Fiction, next door. |
