MEMBERSHIP PROGRAMS

Welcome to the home of living American playwrights! Since our founding in 1979, Second Stage has been dedicated to producing bold theatrical experiences from America’s most dynamic writers.  

After over 45 years and 200 captivating productions on and off Broadway, Second Stage’s pipeline of readings, workshops, and commissioned plays has become a pillar of New York’s theater community, thanks to the generosity of patrons at the individual, foundation, and corporate levels.

Second Stage’s membership programs live at the core of our community. The support of our Champions, Friends, and 2ND GEN directly impacts the work of our artists and helps champion the next generation of diverse, compelling voices in theater.  

To show our thanks, members enjoy a variety of benefits at every giving level, including early access to our programming, invitations to special events, and exclusive insight into the creative process.
