OFFICE SPACE
One of the critical issues facing theatres today is the need for affordable office space. Without an appropriate office, it is difficult for companies to continue to grow, expand their artistic programming, effectively manage their time, and in some instances, hire a staff or find interns. In 2000, A.R.T./New York purchased its first shared space facility to help address this challenge. Today, A.R.T./New York’s two facilities offer a combined forty-two offices available to member companies to rent.
