Go Out and Play!

New York’s outdoor theater companies provide fun in the sun and magic in the moonlight.

One of the many joys of summer in New York City is the ability to enjoy great theater — while also taking advantage of the great outdoors.

TheaterMania recently caught up with three such companies, Gorilla Rep, Boomerang, and Piper, to check out their outdoor offerings.
