Artword
Theatre was created by Ronald Weihs and Judith Sandiford. In
1998, with the assistance of our landlord, Abrar Galani, we
converted a clothing factory at 75 Portland Street into the
elegant and versatile arts facility we occupied
until
2006.
From
1993 to 1998, Artword had a nifty little 50-seat theatre on
the second floor of an industrial building at 81 Portland
Street. We did some wonderful
things
there, before our big move.
Our
Main Stage has 150 comfortable seats and a sprung stage. A
second space, called the Artword Alternative (60 seats), is
for more experimental productions. The Artword
Gallery,
which hosts art shows curated by Judith Sandiford, functions
as the lobby for the two theatres. People find Artword warm,
friendly and attractive.
To
December 2001, Artword Theatre presented:
26 theatre productions, including
8 Artword productions
11 dance programs
9
