As a non-profit organization, New York Stage and Film relies upon the generosity and tax-deductible contributions of individuals, corporations, and foundations to continue to develop exciting new work for the American theater. Since its founding in 1985, New York Stage and Film has been embraced by a passionate community of donors committed to the company’s mission.
Each winter, New York Stage and Film holds a gala to celebrates its artists and honors individuals who have made significant contributions to theater, film, television and the cultural life of New York City. This past year’s gala honored Angelina Fiordellisi & Matt Williams and Christopher Plummer.
