Thank You for Spending Your Summer with NY Classical
AS OUR 2026 SUMMER SEASON COMES TO A CLOSE, WE WANT TO THANK EVERYONE WHO MADE THE TRAGEDY OF JULIUS CAESAR SUCH A MEMORABLE JOURNEY.
To the thousands of audience members who walked with us through New York's parks—and to our remarkable artists, staff, volunteers, donors, and community partners—thank you. This season was made possible by you.
While extreme heat brought our final week to an earlier close than we'd hoped, we're incredibly proud of what we accomplished together. Every performance, every conversation, and every shared moment reminded us why free outdoor theatre matters.
Before we turn the page to what's next, we invite you to take one last look back at this extraordinary summer.
WHO WE ARE
New York Classical Theatre creates and reinvigorates audiences for the theatre by presenting free productions of popular and forgotten classical plays in public spaces throughout New York City. We are also committed to developing and producing new plays by living playwrights that enrich and expand our understanding of what defines a classic.
