The Flea Theater

The Flea Theater

The Flea Theater, founded in 1996, is a theater in the Tribeca section of New York City. It presents primarily new American theater, and provides a venue for film stars to act on a very small (88-seat) stage. It is the home of "The Bats," an Obie Award winning resident acting troupe of primarily young actors that presents new and classical works. The theater was founded by distinguished downtown theater artists: director Jim Simpson, playwright Mac Wellman, and designer Kyle Chepulis. Known primarily for original productions of post-9-11 play "The Guys" and political works by A.R. Gurney.
