Minetta Lane Theatre

Minetta Lane Theatre is a theatre with 391 seats located in a brick building at 18 Minetta Lane in Greenwich Village, Lower Manhattan. The venue hosts various types of productions ranging from musicals to comedy performances and theatrical readings.

The theatre opened in 1984 as a new performance space in Greenwich Village. Since then it has hosted numerous off-Broadway productions that helped establish it as a significant venue in the theater community.

The theatre supports emerging and established artists by staging musicals, comedy shows, and experimental works that might not find space elsewhere. It functions as a gathering place for theater lovers seeking something beyond mainstream productions.

The building has accessibility features and provides online seating maps so visitors can choose their seats before shows. It is best to check the schedule ahead of time and book seats in advance for better availability.

Audible, the audiobook platform, has partnered with the theatre since 2018 to produce live performances and staged readings. This collaboration has made the venue a bridge between digital storytelling and live theatrical art.
