Our 2026 Capital Campaign has begun!
We are taking the next step on our 5 year journey - The Road To Ensemble - by launching our 2026 Season.
With your help, we will meet our goal of raising $350,000 by January 1st 2026. In 2026, we’ll expand our production schedule, scale our organizational infrastructure, and bring more artists and patrons into the fold.
If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation, you can do so through our registered 501(c)(3) fiscal sponsor, Egg & Spoon Theatre Collective.

About Egg & Spoon Theatre Collective
Since 2017, Egg & Spoon Theatre Collective has championed and produced new plays throughout New York City’s five boroughs. Through the programming of mainstage productions, community focused readings, and new play programs such as INCUBATION SERIES + INCUBATE NYC, we’re driven by our commitment to foster new work for New York City.
WHY ARE WE CALLED EGG & SPOON?
Our mission is perfectly captured in the image of an egg and spoon race. We're cradling something delicate, focused on walking forward. And if the egg falls or breaks, we pick it up or get another. The joy that is present at block parties and field days is community-centric. It brings us together, for the sake of bringing us together. We hope that we can nurture artists and stories in a similar fashion, with care, and always with a playful spirit.
Egg & Spoon Theatre Collective is a proud member of the Alliance of Resident Theatres New York (A.R.T./NY), which is is an arts service organization dedicated to supporting New York City’s vibrant community of nonprofit theatres.
FISCAL SPONSORSHIP
A registered 501(c)(3), Egg & Spoon is proud to sponsor New American Ensemble, and other mission aligned theatrical organizations in New York City and beyond.
