HB Playwrights Foundation

Since 1965, playwrights and other theatre artists have come to Bank Street where they have found a safe and nurturing environment in which to grow. They have come here and toiled to tell their stories which give voice and shape to all else that happens on, over, under, behind, around and in front of the stage. To date, over 270 plays have been given full productions and an even larger number has been afforded readings and workshops. Today, our commitment continues stronger than ever. Currently, in addition to the numerous play readings/workshops/productions for the members of the HB Playwrights' Unit, the HB Theatre presents four full productions each year by playwrights from around the world whose work will benefit from the long-term development process available here.
