In Praise of New World Stages

David Cote hails the good fortunes of late over at New World Stages, one of our Off Broadway "megaplexes." While a more commercial outlet than other similar venues, it's gaining some high-cred tenants. I second the sentiment and offer some questions in his comments section.

Indeed, without New World, Theatre Row, and 59E59 I don't know where Off Broadway would be these days, in this economic and real estate climate. I mean those who don't already own their own spaces.

BTW, Village Voice named 59E59 "Best Theater for Cash-Strapped Producers" in their big 2009 Best of NY issue. Read why.
