Are you looking for an opportunity to serve New Yorkers through the arts? Do you seek an organization with a reputation for thrilling, provocative theatre? Do you thrive in smart, creative environments?
The FROG & PEACH THEATRE COMPANY may be the place for you!
From its Main Stage residence in the heart of the East Village, to The Players Club on Gramercy Park South, Frog & Peach brings quality theatre to one of the most diverse audiences to be found anywhere.
Founded by members of the prestigious Actors Studio, Frog & Peach Theatre, one of New York's premiere Shakespeare ensembles, is currently accepting applicant proposals for our Board of Directors.
Frog & Peach has turned thousands of New Yorkers on to the pleasures of Shakespeare and theatre. We've produced over 30 critically acclaimed Main Stage productions, created a dynamic, interactive Children's program (Tinkerbell Theatre) and launched a quality arts education program of Stage Combat, Shakespeare, and Acting for under-served youth, the mentally ill and for the general public.
Known for its dynamic acting and thrilling, fast-paced productions, Frog & Peach has grown from a small Upper West Side church loft to sell out crowds at the fabulous Sheen Center Black Box Theatre at 18 Bleecker St. We are a dynamic force in the the New York theatre community. We are seeking individuals with experience to lead and advise us on donor development and marketing.
Company members and advisory committee include Estelle Parsons, Austin Pendleton, Greg Mullavey, Alec Baldwin, and many more.
