We are writing to share some exciting and groundbreaking news. Long Wharf Theatre, after 57 years at the New Haven Food Terminal, will be leaving its current home to usher in a new chapter in its storied history. We will continue to produce theatre, and we are committed to creating an institution that belongs to you, the community.

The pandemic, through its many exhaustions, has given Long Wharf Theatre the rare opportunity to reflect, regroup, and reassess. Since the shutdown, we have tried our very best to stay connected by telling stories and sharing experiences that have something to say about the world around us. We have done this virtually and, more recently, in person on the Claire Tow Stage. As you can imagine, we have learned so much during this unthinkable time. One such powerful lesson: people and relationships, rather than bricks and mortar, make for a beloved regional theatre. Together, we have built a company with an extraordinary legacy—first-rate productions, stunning designs, and mesmerizing performances.

We will take the best parts of our treasured past as the bridge to our boundary-breaking future. Long Wharf Theatre has always been a place for visionary thinking, both big and small. When the company was founded in 1965 by Jon Jory, Harlan Kleiman, Ruth Lord, Betty Kubler, and Newt Schenck with support from the community, there was a spirit of imagination and possibility that propelled the work forward. That will always stay with us; they will always be with us. Even as we say goodbye to our home at 222 Sargent Drive, we will build on all that has come before. So, what comes next?

Our 2021/22 season will continue at 222 Sargent Drive.

Beginning in fall of 2023–following an in-depth, community-driven strategic planning phase–the new model will enable Long Wharf Theatre productions to be presented throughout Greater New Haven, embedding the company within the City, and no longer anchoring performances to our current space. Long Wharf Theatre will be able to serve its artists in ways that are tailor-made for each project while making our work more accessible to the entire New Haven community. We will also use this time to listen, to learn, and to build co-created partnerships with our artists, supporters, and local partners to better understand the unique role Long Wharf Theatre could play in the dynamic civic life of our city, which may include a new permanent home in the future. We will continue to share updates with you on our bold new programming and partnerships as these conversations unfold in the coming months.

You can read more about our news on The New York Times. In March, we will also host several in-person and virtual Town Hall events to gather in community with you about the exciting future of Long Wharf Theatre. Those dates are:

  • Thursday, March 9 at 7-8pm (Virtual)
  • Thursday, March 24 at 7-8pm (Virtual)
  • Saturday, April 2 at 2-3pm (NHFPL Mitchell Branch, 37 Harrison Street, New Haven)
  • Thursday, April 7 at 7-8pm (Long Wharf Theatre, 222 Sargent Drive, New Haven)

Information on how to sign up for Town Halls will be shared in the coming weeks.

Long Wharf Theatre—guided by the core pillars of artistic innovation, radical inclusion, and kaleidoscopic partnerships—will continue to produce dynamic and fully staged productions, incubate new plays and musicals, support the best voices working in the American theatre, deliver meaningful virtual and in-person opportunities to engage with our artists, and provide community programming for learners of all ages. Our Theatre will remain an unparalleled hub for creative excellence and an artistic home for a new generation of great storytellers. In the meantime, we hope to see you at our upcoming shows and events—and stay tuned for more information to come.

As a stalwart supporter of our institution, we imagine you have questions about this evolution, and we welcome your thoughts and questions. While we hope you will join us at a Town Hall, you can also reach us at lwt@longwharf.org or leave a message at (203) 772-8265 and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

May that spirit of possibility our company was seeded with guide us into the future, and beyond. As we continue writing the story of Long Wharf Theatre, we hope you will join us for this joyful and historic journey.

10 October, 2018 – GUNSHOTS FIRED AT CAR IN WESTVILLE VILLAGE AS CROWDS LEAVE ROOSEVELT’S BAR

 

This marks the third gunfire/ shooting event in one year related to a bar in the heart of the quiet Westville Village. At 1:03 AM, Officers responded to calls of gunfire that had occurred outside Roosevelt’s Bar, 883 Whalley Avenue.

 

An officer had been flagged down at the corner of Fountain Street and Central Avenue by a person reporting a chaotic scene just blocks away. As he approached, the officer heard gunfire and spotted a Subaru Forester leaving the area. He pulled over the car on West Rock Avenue. The car’s windshield had been shot at.

 

About two hours later, an officer in Fair Haven was contacted by a man admitting he’d fired at the vehicle after its driver sped directly at him. The twenty-five year old Hamden, CT man told police he was leaving Roosevelt’s when a man pulled up to him and addressed him. He said the man drove off, made a U-turn and sped toward him. He told officers he jumped into his own car but couldn’t get it started in time to flee. He said the man struck his car and he thought the man would harm him. He said he fired at the driver, who in turn fled.

 

Video of the incident, viewed by the officers, generally corroborates the victim’s story. The victim has a valid pistol permit. It appears he was not the antagonist in this incident.

 

The case remains under investigation. An arrest has not yet been made.

 

On Saturday, September 22, 2018, Officers, as had become routine, were posted at Roosevelt’s bar to clear out the crowd after closing time. At 1:52 AM, those officers heard gunfire and found the victim in front of the closed business at 867 Whalley Avenue. Tomone Archie Lindsey, thirty-two, of New Haven, had been shot in the leg. He claimed to have no knowledge as to who’d shot him. A parked car was struck as well.

 

Though Roosevelt’s Bar often hires an Extra Duty officer on weekends, routinely, it takes many on-duty officers to clear out the area after closing.

9 October, 2018 – MAN CLAIMS SELF-DEFENSE IN STABBING. THE INJURED PERSON DISAPPEARED

 

At 9:36 PM, officers were dispatched to 154 Frank Street after somone reported an assault.

 

The arriving cops found a pool of blood on the front porch and a trail of blood leading inside to the second floor. There was more blood in a bedroom, but no one was in it.

 

Suspicious of the noises above, the basement tennant emerged and told the cops he’d seen two women leaving the building after hearing an argument. He said his upstairs-neighbor came outside and was bleeding from his face. He said the women cut him.

 

Police cought up with the victim at Yale New Haven Hospital. The sixty-six year old told the officers he was in his bedroom, when the door opened and two men entered. One had a “shiny knife”. The blade-wielding man aproached  him. The victim armed himself with a screwdriver and ordered the intruder to stop.

 

The victim said the man kept coming and sliced his face and hand. The victim said he stabbed the intruder several times with the screwdriver. The last time, said the victim, the screwdriver remained in the man’s chest.

 

The victim’s wounds – though deep, were not deemed life-threatening. The intruders were not found despite frequent checks for the impaled one – male or female.

 

9 October, 2018 – HURLBURT STREET RESIDENCE STRUCK BY BULLETS

 

At 9:13 PM, the city’s ShotSpotter® system alerted to gunfire on the one-hundred block of Hurlburt Street. Officers narrowed their search to a bullet struk home at 109 Hurlburt Street. Bullet shell casings, found outside on the street and front porch, were collected and the house was searched. One of its occupants, Travis Jenkins (3-30-1975), of that address, had two outstanding warrants (larceny 6th and failing to appear in court) and was taken into custody. His custody was otherwise unrelated to this case.

 

We’re looking into the who and why and are interested in hearing from anyone who has information on this case. 203-946-6304, if you’re interested in talking. Calls may be made annonymously.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Authorities have released two Los Angeles attorneys who represented former rap mogul Marion “Suge” Knight a day after they were arrested.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said Matthew Fletcher and Thaddeus Culpepper were let out of jail Friday night because their “complex” case requires further review by prosecutors before they can be charged.

Both men were arrested Thursday on warrants alleging they were accessories after the fact to a felony, authorities said, without disclosing what the felony was or what they are believed to have done.

Messages to the district attorney’s office and the two attorneys were not immediately returned.

The attorneys are among several who have represented Knight, the Death Row Records co-founder who was charged with murder and attempted murder in 2015. Knight has pleaded not guilty.
