We have a come long way since 1994, and thanks to the support of the community, we will continue to deliver provocative and topical productions otherwise unavailable to local theatre-goers."

The Theater Project is committed to producing new works and contemporary classics for the stage. An award-winning Associate Member of the New Jersey Theater Alliance, The Theater Project is recognized for its color-blind casting policy and provocative "actor's view of theater" seating where the audience literally sits on-stage with the actors where the action is. The Theater Project has recently received grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation, the New Jersey State Council for the Arts, and the Union County Board of Chosen
Freeholders.
