About Gallery Players

The Mission of the Gallery Players The mission of the Gallery Players is to nurture and provide opportunities for theatre artists, to bring professional-quality theatre to Brooklyn audiences at an affordable cost, and to instill the appreciation of theatre in future generations.

Residing in a 99-seat theater in Park Slope, the Gallery Players has provided Brooklyn audiences with professional-quality theatre since 1967. Beloved on both sides of the Brooklyn Bridge, Gallery is dedicated to producing classic and contemporary plays and musicals as well as premiering new works. Recipient of the Off-Off Broadway Review’s 2000 Award for Lifetime Achievement, the 2013 Leonard da Vinci Award from the Beaux Arts Society, and the New York Innovative Theatre Awards for outstanding musical for Spring Awakening (2019), Like You Like It (2009), Yank! (2008), and Urinetown (2007). Gallery Players’ season comprises three plays and three musicals, covering a remarkably wide range of dramatic and comedic styles; the annual Black Box New Play Festival, which gives premiere performances of new works by playwrights; Players’ Shakespeare; and Overtures: A New Musical Reading Series.

Gallery’s reputation, critical acclaim, and popularity among audiences and artists puts it in an enviable position among its volunteer-only and Off-Off Broadway comparables. Its eclectic programming of intimate revivals and ambitious new work in inventive productions has earned it the reputation of “New York’s Best Kept Secret.” Among its famous alumni are founding member Harvey Fierstein; Broadway regulars Nancy Anderson, Jeffry Denman, and Deidre Goodwin; New York theater personality Seth Rudetsky; and many others.
