Supporting Directors
With over 105 years of history, The Drama League remains one of the nation’s oldest continuously-operating, not-for-profit arts service organizations.
We deliver opportunities for creative and career advancement for stage directors and the theatrical community, while connecting audiences to their work. We do this through programming in New York City at our home in Tribeca as well as through local, national and international partnerships. Every gift to The Drama League advances our fellowships, residencies, education and public programs.
As a service organization focused on directors our work is more urgent than ever and we are very grateful for your support.

The Lost Boys
BECOME ONE OF US
Welcome to Santa Carla. Perfect weather. Beautiful beaches. And a charming boardwalk…as long as you ignore all the “Missing” posters.
When a mother and her two teenage sons move to town in desperate need of a fresh start, they soon uncover the darker side of this sunny coastal community. While Lucy tries to piece her family’s life back together, Michael keeps pulling away in search of belonging. As he finds connection with a local rock band and its charismatic leader, his younger brother Sam comes face-to-face with a terrifying reality: When night falls, Michael’s new friends are even more dangerous than they first appeared.
Based on the cult-classic Warner Bros. film, The Lost Boys: A New Musical arrives on Broadway this spring, directed by Tony Award® winner Michael Arden (Maybe Happy Ending, Parade) and featuring music and lyrics by The Rescues, a book by David Hornsby and Chris Hoch, choreography by Lauren Yalango-Grant and Christopher Cree Grant (The Queen of Versailles), and music supervision by Tony nominee Ethan Popp (Tina: The Tina Turner Musical). The Lost Boys is produced by James Carpinello, Marcus Chait, and Patrick Wilson.
