About Us

NYC’s Home for Cutting-edge Performance, Artistic Research, and Discourse

NYU Skirball holds close James Baldwin’s dictum that “artists are here to disturb the peace.” Our mission is to present adventuresome, transdisciplinary work that inspires yet frustrates, confirms yet confounds, entertains yet upends. We proudly embrace renegade artists who surprise, productions that blur aesthetic boundaries, and thought leaders who are courageous, outrageous, and mind-blowing. We are NYU’s largest classroom. We want to feed your head.

NYU Skirball is located at 566 LaGuardia Place. Click here for directions
