American Theatre Wing

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The American Theatre Wing (or the Wing for short; originally part of the WWII Allied Relief Fund) is a New York City-based organization "dedicated to supporting excellence and education in theatre," according to its mission statement.

The Wing is the founder and owner of The American Theatre Wing's Antoinette Perry "Tony" Awards®, or the Tony Awards, for short.

The initial broadcast of its Tony Awards program on radio and television was solely locally in New York City. In 1967, it partnered with the League of American Theatres and Producers to present them on nationwide network television.

Besides the Tonys, ATW operates an array of programs to support its goals, including:

  • The long-running Working In The Theatre series of televised seminars with top practitioners in the field
  • Downstage Center, a weekly radio theatrical interview show on XM Satellite Radio
  • A free audio and video archive of theatrical seminars and discussions at www.americantheatrewing.org
  • A grants and scholarship program awarding more than 50 grants annually to New York not-for-profit theatre companies and theatre students
  • The annual ATW Henry Hewes Awards for achievement in theatrical design in New York City
  • SpringboardNYC, a two-week, college-to-career arts "boot camp"
  • Theatre Intern Group, a networking and professional development group for young people who work in theatrical offices.
