Who are Brooklyn’s Dreamers?

The faces of Brooklyn - anyone who is engaged in their community, who cares about Brooklyn’s dynamic cultural landscape, who likes to make things happen and who would like to meet others who are interested in the same thing!

What do we do: host parties, performances and social arts events that bring together you, your friends, actors, other artists and fellow New Yorkers, all in the name of supporting Theatre for a New Audience and the growing Brooklyn arts community.

Why do we do this: to help build Theatre for a New Audience’s first permanent home. Frank Gehry and Hugh Hardy have collaborated to design a stunning building with an Elizabethan courtyard theatre in the heart of the BAM Cultural District in Downtown Brooklyn. For 28 years Theatre for a New Audience has been producing stellar contemporary versions of Shakespeare and other classic works and running education programs for NYC school children all without a theatre of our own. It’s high time we had one and Brooklyn is the right place and now is the right time!

Please Join! You’ll meet fun, interesting people, help to bring great theatre to Brooklyn, be a part of the revitalization of Downtown Brooklyn and the expansion of arts and culture in New York City.

What do you get: The opportunity to meet actors and other artists at exclusive events, preferred seating and special ticket pricing and, best of all, the opportunity to be in on the ground floor of the next great thing!

Brooklyn's Dreamers are taking Brooklyn by storm... come on along for the ride! Here are just a few of the perks we offer Brooklyn's Dreamers:

  • Special Brooklyn's Dreamers ticket price to see Theatre for a New Audience productions
  • Guaranteed seating at popular TFANA productions if reserved by the designated date
  • Invitations to "Meet the Artist" receptions
  • Invitations to Brooklyn's Dreamers Summer Bash and other events held throughout the year at fabulous Brooklyn and Manhattan venues: Great opportunities for socializing, networking and celebrating the best of Brooklyn
  • Invitations to pre-theatre parties and post-performance talks led by academics, authors, theatre specialists, directors and actors
  • Exclusive TFANA Capital Campaign Newsletters
Here's how you can help us:

We need your enthusiasm and creative ideas and will not require a lot of your time. We also need you to come to our events and bring friends. Please contact us for more information at events@tfana.org.

Please share your bright ideas for cultural partnerships and events we might host or co-host in Brooklyn - party at a gallery supporting a local artist's event or creating one around their work, cocktail parties to introduce new people to the Dreamers, participating in Brooklyn public events, events with other theatres, museums, etc..
