MCC Theater is an Off-Broadway theater company located in New York City, founded in 1986 by artistic directors Robert LuPone and Bernard Telsey along with six graduates of the New York University drama department, including Jana Herzen now president of Harlem-based Motema Music. ==Mission== MCC Theater was founded in 1986 as Manhattan Class Company, then a collective of young actors, writers and directors eager to take a leadership role in their own artistic development. Initial peer-based “classes” led to showcases and eventually to the kinds of full-scale productions that have made MCC Theater one of New York’s leading off-Broadway theater companies. MCC Theater carries out its mission through a four-play mainstage season, its literary development programs, and education and outreach initiatives that include the MCC Theater Youth Company, a free program for high school students, and several in-school partnerships. Past productions include Neil LaBute's ''reasons to be pretty'' (moved to Broadway in 2009), ''In A Dark Dark House'', ''Some Girl(s)'' and ''Fat Pig''; Robert Askins's ''Hand to God''; ''Frozen'' (which moved to Broadway in 2004); and ''Wit'' (winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1999). MCC Theater plans to move into a larger theater space designed by architect Andrew Berman at 52nd Street and 10th Avenue in 2017.〔(The New York Times: ''No Place Like Home, a Theater Believes'', by Patrick Healy, December 2, 2011 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MCC Theater」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
