BIO
Tony Kiser has been a trustee of the Second Stage Theatre in New York City since 1981. He has served as both a Chairman and a Co-chairman of its Board of Directors. Second Stage was founded in 1979 to present new American plays and revivals of contemporary American plays. It has produced works by Michael Weller, Tina Howe, Lanford Wilson, Lynn Nottage, Kenneth Lonergan, Tracey Letts and many others. Dear Evan Hansen and Next to Normal were Second Stage presentations before transferring to Broadway for commercial runs. In 1999, Kiser assisted the Second Stage’s move into a former bank building on West 43rd Street. The space was gutted and then redesigned by the Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas. In 2011, the theater was named the Tony Kiser Theatre.
