Program areas at The Brick Theater

The Brick is a not-for-profit theater dedicated to developing and presenting the work of pioneering emerging artists and career experimenters in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. We are the artistic home for work that pushes boundaries and spans the ever-evolving spectrum of performing arts, theater, dance, video, virtual reality, and mixed media performance. By nurturing emerging artists, sustaining ongoing relationships with frequent collaborators, and removing financial barriers for artists to present work, we create a diverse, accessible, and inclusive artistic community for the citys most daring performers. Founded in 2002, The Brick has established itself as an essential experimental venue for the production of compelling, new, high-quality work. As a vital part of the New York artistic community, in 2023 we presented over 75 different performances, exhibitions, readings, and educational events serving over 7500 people at our two spaces, The Brick Theatre and Brick Aux. We serve a diverse and intergenerational audience from the five boroughs. We are committed to keeping our programming affordable with low-cost and sliding-scale ticket prices and providing high-level performances in an accessible location and unique artistic experiences.
