Forestburgh Theatre / Forestburgh Playhouse

Founded in 1947, the Forestburgh Playhouse is the oldest continuously operating professional summer theatre in New York State. The Playhouse offers a summer season of performances from mid-June through Labor Day, offering Broadway musicals and plays on the main stage, a youth theatre production performed at 11 AM on Thursdays and Saturdays, and musical cabaret performances... presented with dinner in the adjoining Forestburgh Tavern during the week and a late-nite cabaret Fridays and Saturdays after every evening performance.

Under an agreement with the Actors’ Equity Association, the union of professional actors and stage managers, the Playhouse employs professional actors, often with Broadway or other major credits, as well as a company of non-union professionals who earn credit toward their own eventual membership in the Actors’ Equity Association.
