Lucille Lortel Theatre
Lucille Lortel Theatre Review
A venerable neighborhood survivor, the Lucille Lortel Theatre has its roots in the 1950s Brechtian traditions championed by its namesake owner of the time—it first became known for its influential interpretations of works by Brecht and Dos Passos. Previously known as the Theatre De Lys, this 299-seater has forged on to become the home to 21st-century productions of the MCC Theater company (known for Neil LaBute's challenging plays in the century's first decade) and free summer shows that appeal to both children and adults by Theatreworks/USA.
