The 52nd Street Project

The 52nd Street Project is a non-profit arts education organization founded in 1981 that offers drama programming for the youth in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood of New York City.[1] The 52nd Street Project creates and produces new plays for, and often by, children and teens between the ages of nine and eighteen.[2] The Project also offers programming in playwriting, theatrical performance, and academic mentoring,[1] as well as facilitating youth engagement in intergenerational performance and scriptwriting.[3]

History

The 52nd Street Project was founded in 1981 by playwright Willie Reale, and evolved as a continuation of his work connecting youth with creative outlets while volunteering with Ensemble Studio Theater and the Police Athletic League.[4] Reale volunteered to teach an acting class that resulted in a culminating performance with his students.[4] The 52nd Street Project served as an ongoing opportunity to teach and work with students, and Reale led The 52nd Street Project until 1999.[4] In 1998, The 52nd Street Project was awarded the Coming Up Taller Award from the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities.[5]

Theater

In 2010, the Project opened its own theater, Five Angels Theater, located at 789 Tenth Avenue, between West 52nd & 53rd Streets, The Five Angels Theater hosts theatrical work of local children; as well as, contemporary theater and dance performances.[6][7][8] The building which houses the Five Angels Theater, the Avalon Clinton, also hosts spaces for two other local theatrical organizations: The Alliance of Resident Theatres/New York and MCC Theater.[9]

The Clubhouse

In 1996, The Clubhouse was established to provide a safe space for children after school and is part of The 52nd Street Project.[10] It provides a community space for kids to hangout, work on homework, and spend time together.[3]
