Atlantic Theater Company

Atlantic Theater Company is the award-winning, Off-Broadway theater that produces great plays simply and truthfully. Atlantic believes that the story of a play and the intent of its playwright are at the core of the creative process. The plays in the Atlantic repertory, from both new and established playwrights, are boldly interpreted by today’s finest theater artists and resonate with contemporary audiences.

Producing great plays is only half of Atlantic’s mission. The ATLANTIC THEATER COMPANY ACTING SCHOOL, founded in 1987, operates as both a private conservatory and an undergraduate program in conjunction with New York University. The school focuses on the Practical Aesthetics acting technique, which grew out of a series of NYU summer workshops in Vermont with playwright David Mamet and actor William H. Macy.
