The Official Fan Page of Long Wharf Theatre
Named for the Long Wharf port along New Haven Harbor, the theatre was built in a vacant warehouse space in a busy food terminal, with its Mainstage originally stocked with seats borrowed from a retired movie house.
Under the watch of Arvin Brown and Edgar Rosenblum for over 30 years, Long Wharf Theatre established itself as an important force in the regional theatre movement.
Under the current leadership of Artistic Director Gordon Edelstein and Managing Director Joshua Borenstein, Long Wharf Theatre continues to be a leader in American theatre, producing fresh and imaginative revivals of classics and modern plays, rediscoveries of neglected works and a variety of world and American premieres.
To create theatre of the highest quality that inspires discourse and reflection about each of us and the world in which we live.
Long Wharf Theatre produces an annual season of six plays on its two stages, along with children's programming, new play workshops and a variety of special events.
