Working in the Theatre is the American Theatre Wing’s documentary series created to highlight the theatre industry's inner-workings. The series profiles notable members of the industry, and provides a closer look at unique stories and important work. Working in the Theatre aims to inform audiences about typically less well-known aspects of the theatre by sharing The Wing's extensive knowledge of the industry. The series has been running for more than four decades, and has featured extraordinary work from numerous members of the industry. Working in the Theatre receives leadership support from Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and The Dorothy Strelsin Foundation. The series is also supported, in part, by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.[1][2]

History

Since its creation in 1976, Working in the Theatre has evolved from a television-broadcast seminar panel to an award-winning web series highlighting typically less recognized aspects of the theatre industry. Now in its 39th season, the program has long been an integral part of the various programs presented by the American Theatre Wing. In addition to Working in the Theatre, The Wing produces the annual Tony Awards, Obie Awards, and Hewes Design Awards. Other programs created by The Wing include the Jonathan Larson Grants, National Theatre Co. Grants, Andrew Lloyd Webber Initiative, and the Songwriting Challenge.

Working in the Theatre was initially broadcast from the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, led by Wing chair at the time Isabelle Stevenson, and moderated by various board members. Until 2005, the series was only available for viewing on CUNY-TV, a local New York City television station, or at a few NYC libraries. In March 2005 it was announced that The Wing would be releasing Working in the Theatre episodes for free streaming online.[3]

Current production

Working in the Theatre is currently released on The Wing’s YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/user/AmericanTheatreWing channel]. Full episodes usually run about 25 minutes, compared to the original panels which would last up to two hours. In July 2017, The Wing was $60,000 in National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) grants, $25,000 of which will directly support Working in the Theatre.[4][5][6]
