Metropolitan Playhouse is one of three
runners-up for
Favorite Off-Off-Broadway Theater Company to Act With and Favorite Off-Off-Broadway Theater Company to See We are deeply grateful for the many supporters, both within and outside the theater, for the votes and testimonials to earn us this commendation! We would also like to congratulate our fellow award winners, and in our own categories: Winner: T. Schreiber Studios Runners-Up Inertia Productions Love Creek Productions Partial Comfort Productions You can read the article here. We are particularly honored by such praise as these, from Backstage: "a fine place to work and grow." — Chris Harcum "[their] sense of theater and production are wonderful." — Steven Lembark "Everyone of their productions is terrific...and they find unknown pieces from the American canon, plays that truly have formed who we are in the theatre today." — Maria Deasy "This terrific little East Village Theatre specializes in lovely old American plays that haven't been seen much since the early part of the 20th Century. Works by people like Boucicault, Belasco, DeMille (H.D., not Cecil B.), Sidney Howard, etc. They play the old melodramas absolutely straight, and bring out their wonderful power and charm." — Kathleen Huber |
