We make it easy to present your 45 to 90 minute play in the heart of the theatrical center of the World  - TIMES SQUARE. Manhattan Rep is a 52 seat theatre with stock furniture, a private dressing room, 22 lighting instruments and a great sound system. Easily accessible from almost all of the major subway and bus lines, only 2 and a half blocks from Grand Central,  the new Manhattan Repertory Theatre on West 45th St. is located a great block with fantastic restaurants and bars in MIDTOWN Manhattan! The perfect place to debut your new play!

Don't debut your play somewhere way down lost in a dusty old theatre in the East Village or way over West in a cluttered theatre in the middle of a housing community.  Bring your play to TIMES SQUARE!  Meet your friends and family after the show at a great bar or restaurant and have the time of your life bring your play to life!
