Tucked away in the old Archive Building on Christopher St., IRT is a grassroots theater development laboratory providing space, support and community to independent artists. Through its 3B Development Series, IRT offers radically affordable space residencies enabling artists to experiment, take risks and test drive new work before adventurous audiences and fellow creators. The 3B Series opens up a rare middle ground in New York's theater ecology between readings and full productions, creating a supportive environment for full-bodied exploration and iterative development. Kori Rushton and Ben Vershbow, curators.
