"A Theater With a Different Approach
Grows in Asbury Park"
Boardwalk Theatre's Mission
"Some of my favorite childhood memories are on the boardwalk...and in the theatre."
Jeff Hughes, Founder
The boardwalk is fun. It’s cotton candy and hitting golf balls under windmills and making out on the Tilt-a-Whirl. And that’s we want theatre to be. Fun.
Our theatre will be like those boardwalks. Whether you’re 6 or 96, when you leave you’ll think to yourself, “I can’t wait to go back there.”
Our company will operate by a different set of rules.

"The world does not need another theatre company."
Jeff Hughes, Founder
You hear that a lot in not-for-profit circles and it is 100% correct. There are way too many theatre companies, especially in New York City. But it makes sense. It is too damn expensive to put good stuff on stage because the unions rip you off and SpotCo rips you off and the MTA charges way too damn much to throw an ad on a subway platforms in Queens …
Our company will operate by a different set of rules.
