Said Ardelle Striker, the company’s artistic director, who ran the center on a day-to-day basis: “Faced with a significant rent increase, I knew it was the right time in my life and the company’s life to devote our energies to just producing and no longer being a landlord. We plan to produce Blue Heron’s next show — in late spring — in another space in Manhattan. I’m also excited about the fact that there has been significant talk about a possible transfer [of our recent production] of Bartleby the Scrivener to an Off-Broadway contract.”
Among the many successful shows that played at Blue Heron were Admissions, The Loves of Shakespeare’s Women, I Love Paris, Blackbird, and Harlem Duet.
