Theater Description

The Barrow Group’s (TBG) mission is to combine spontaneous acting with well-crafted stories that address social, spiritual, and political issues, enriching our community with a greater understanding of ourselves, others, and the world around us.

TBG is an award-winning theatre company and training center located in the heart of New York City. Founded in 1986, TBG’s artistic programs consist of producing an annual Mainstage Season, a Developmental program that cultivates original stories and the artists who tell them, and a Training Center that supports thousands of artists from a wide range of backgrounds, identities, and experience levels a year. We strive to offer the most accessible programs possible, keeping our prices low and offering a robust diversity scholarship program for underserved artists. TBG has developed and produced several critically acclaimed and award-winning productions, including Martin Moran's THE TRICKY PART (2004 Obie Award, 2019 remount), Jon Marans' THE TEMPERAMENTALS (2009 Drama Desk Award), Mike Birbiglia's MY GIRLFRIEND'S BOYFRIEND (2011 Lucille Lortel Award) and Martin Moran’s ALL THE RAGE (2013 Lucille Lortel Award). Notable alumni of TBG’s training program include Academy Award winner Anne Hathaway, three-time Emmy winner Jennifer Landon, and Emmy winner Tony Hale. In 2005, TBG won a Drama Desk Award for Off-off-Broadway Excellence.
