Help Save The Secret Theatre With New GoFundMe Campaign  Image

The Secret Theatre is in danger of shutting its doors due to the due to the economy and uncertainty of the future of arts funding. This could happen as soon as February unless people come together to signal their desire to keep the Secret Theatre alive.

The theatre has launched a GoFundMe campaign, which can be found here. The funds will be used to secure the immediate and mid-term future of The Secret while they re-organize to maintain a venue that has been a cultural institution that has enriched the lives of not only the theatre loving community but has been the platform for so many new plays, directors, actors and writers.

For the past decade, the Secret Theatre has brought exciting, edgy, and sometimes beloved off-off Broadway shows to Long Island City with affordable ticket prices. It has hosted the Queens New Music Festival, Queens World Film Festival, Queensboro Dance Festival, and many others. It has nurtured the talents and dreams of Queens young people--children--who want to sing, dance, act, and make films. When people who value culture think of Long Island City, they think of the Secret Theatre.
