Yes, ANYONE who is a serious (or absurd) NYC theatergoer has heard of The Wild Project. Among other offerings, it is the home for Clubbed Thumb’s SummerWorks, meaning it was the launch pad for “What the Constitution Means to Me”.

If that is your standard. I’ve never heard of the group.

Or even just press release subject lines.

Yes, I'm surprised regulars here have never heard of The Wild Project

I have only the vaguest recognition of the name and really no idea what they do. Odd, because I'm familiar with most every other group mentioned in this thread.

I looked though their previous productions (prior to the past five years when I moved out of NY) and that didn't jog anything either. Bit of a mystery to me that they never caught my eye. The only thing I can think of is that perhaps they were not frequently listed on TDF. I used TDF for almost everything I saw off and off-off Broadway because the selection was plentiful and one is unlikely to have a bad seat in a small house. I stopped using TDF for Broadway due to too many bad seats. Again, I am talking five years ago and earlier.

TDF was such a gift for my 30 years of NY theater going.

I've seen a few shows at this decent theatre space on East 3rd St. Very intermediate with a friendly staff. A few blocks from Katz's Deli. I use to hear more about then but their still active.

me neither, I guess, though I will see about 90 theater pieces this year, including at Ars Nova, HERE, BAM, Soho Playhouse, etc. And I saw What the Constitution Means to Me without managing to hear of it.

You’re not a serous *NYC* theatergoer.

I said a serious NYC theatergoer. You seem to primarily do Broadway, which is a small slice of the NYC scene.

Many serious NYC theatergoers have no idea what that is.

I don't guess I am a serious theatergoer because I have not been to the wild project but I am a serious postal mail and electronic mail receiver because I have heard of the wild project often. Outside of a concentration on LGBTQ artists, I don't hink I could tell you anymore about it but I do know it is an active producing entity in the East Village. That info just seeped in.

To be fair, Dramedy does not wear blinders to off-B but no non-local is going to be as aware of off-off as a local. I go to obscure venues and obscure shows because I can (and I like to). Just as there are those here who feel they know London well, compared to an avid London theatregoer they don't really. Using Wild Project was, as I said in the other post, apt, and that does not change because non-local avid NY theatre-goers don't have it on their radar. Part of the symptom of hurting business-wise is the inability to spend to broaden awareness.
