The Brick

The Brick Theater, located at 579 Metropolitan Avenue in New York, United States, is a unique institution dedicated to presenting the work of emerging artists and experimental creators. Inspired by Hannah Arendt's concept of "The Banality of Evil," The Brick offers a diverse range of performances, including neo-noir courtroom dramas, interactive events, and new works by up-and-coming artists.

The institution hosts a variety of events, such as "The Circus is Coming to Town," "New Works 2024" nights featuring a lineup of talented artists, and "The Saga of the Shining Emblem" improv adventure show. Through group conversations, writing prompts, and movement exercises, performers at The Brick delve into hidden truths and explore what wants to be seen on stage.

Founded in 2002, The Brick has become a vital part of the New York artistic community, presenting hundreds of live performances each year at its two spaces, The Brick and Brick Aux. With a commitment to nurturing emerging talent and creating an inclusive artistic community, The Brick offers low-cost and sliding-scale ticket prices to make performances accessible to all.
