The NYC World Theatre Day Coalition is comprised of representatives of theatre companies and advocacy groups whose common goal is to promote World Theatre Day within the New York City theatre community. The primary functions of the coalition are to organize events, to distribute the WTD message, and to coordinate a central location for companies to communicate their World Theatre Day plans.

This year we are planning a series of Flash Mobs all over NYC on World Theatre Day as tribute to the rich world theatre day flash mob tradition. To RSVP to partake in a flash mob email info@nycwtd.com. There will be 7 in total and they are as follows:
