“We want to make a difference in people's lives,” says Tapper. “We want to do new shows, to encourage new writers and directors. We want to feature children's shows and get young people involved in theater at an early age. We also want to do cabaret because, well, it's just fun. We also want to serve as a regional theater to the people in our immediate area, to draw on their energy, and solicit their opinions - because we truly value the community around us.” The clean, sleek space features a futuristic lighting scheme set against a black and white motif. “When people hear about the black and white look, they’re a bit skeptical. Even I was skeptical!” says Sportiello. “But once they see the finished product, they agree it looks like a real work of art, and everyone’s been impressed. In my opinion, it’s the most unique and striking Off-Broadway theater in the theater district. We can’t wait to share it with the community, so we’re looking forward to welcoming local theatergoers and press at a special launch event that we’ll be announcing soon.”
