Description
Excerpt from The Neighborhood Playhouse: Leaves From a Theatre Scrapbook
Off-broadway could have been further off, either physi cally in miles or in atmosphere. The journey to Grand Street in the heart of the great isolated, self-contained, exotic and teeming East Side took one into a world most of us seldom visited on any other occasion and one which was, in many respects, as foreign as though it had been located on a dif ferent continent. Grand Street was an adventure in itself. I, at least, knew very little about the theatre to which I was headed beyond the fat that it was Somehow connected with the Henry Street Settlement house and that it had been founded by the two Misses Lewisohn who had inherited from their father both wealth and a philanthropic impulse.
