I am bolder, stronger and more exciting than before

Aaron Davis Hall was founded in 1981 on the City College Campus of New York. The building houses a 750-seat proscenium theater, a 175-seat experimental theater and a 75-seat rehearsal studio workshop. The year round calendar was filled with affordable programs for the community. In 2008 Aaron Davis Hall relocated to its new space Harlem Stage Gatehouse right across the street. The original space is getting a new life as the professional theater for the New Haarlem Arts Theater, the brainchild of Eugene Nesmith, the chairman of the theater and speech department at City College. The theater group will produce affordable productions were the tickets cost between $15 to $25. Their first production will be James Baldwin‘s “Blues for Mister Charlie“.
While in the neighborhood checkout the other performing space Harlem Stage Gatehouse, this intimate space was once part of the Croton Aqueduct water system. Then there is the wonderful City College of New York Campus with breathtaking Gothic buildings nested in Harlem overlooking St. Nicholas Park.
Transportation: Bus—M100, M101. Subway—A, B, C, D to 145th St.
