Greenwich Village Historic District TheaterJam

Greenwich Village has been a hot-bed for creative theatrical minds since at least the beginning of the 20th century. Some of the most important movements in American theater were nurtured here. As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Greenwich Village Historic District, we celebrate the artists who make the Village into the rich cultural landscape that it is.

Join GVSHP for its very first Village TheaterJam hosted by Cherry Lane Theatre, with Master of Ceremonies David Greenspan, a Villager, Playwright, actor, theater aficionado, and six-time Obie Award winner.

Experience some of the Village’s groundbreaking theater and new works, including:
Excerpts from Rattlestick Playwrights Theater’s “Novenas for a Lost Hospital: The St. Vincents Project,” with actor Kathleen Chalfant, James Scruggs’ “A Voluptuary Life,” and Peculiar Works’ “In Her Words: 2 Jane Jacobs,” and works from Cherry Lane Theatre, HB Studio, HERE, New Ohio Theater, and NYU Tisch School for the Arts.

This event is part of the 50th anniversary of the designation of the Greenwich Village Historic District programming. Learn more at gvshp.org/gvhd50.
