New York Stage and Film

About New York Stage and Film

New York Stage and Film is a non-profit company dedicated to artists developing new stories for theater, film and beyond by supporting responsive processes. 

Since 1985, NYSAF has been a vital incubator for emerging and established artists and their work, a catalyst for stories that start with us and continue across the country and around the world.

NYSAF’s annual artist support includes:

--Our Summer Season in the Hudson Valley where professional artists and early-career practitioners live and work together in a collaborative artistic environment. Working away from critical and commercial pressures, artists are free to connect and take risks as they explore and develop new projects through readings, workshops, developmental productions, and residencies.

--NYC-Based Processes that emulate the nurturing environment of our summer season.

--Adaptable and remote programs, mentorships, and communities that support artists through an evolving era of connectivity and creation.

--Our Filmmaker’s Workshop that serves early-career filmmakers with professional mentors and creative development.

--The Founders’ Award and Pfaelzer Award that serve exceptional voices with financial support, administrative resources, and access to the NYSAF community while they develop a project of their choosing.

--Residencies for individual artists, project teams, and other companies, with resources tailored to their articulated needs.

Notable productions that received vital incubation with NYSAF include: the Tony Award-winning Hamilton (Lin-Manuel Miranda), Hadestown (Anaïs Mitchell), The Humans (Stephen Karam), Doubt (John Patrick Shanley); OBIE Award winning The Invisible Hand (Ayad Akhtar), Pulitzer-finalists The Wolves (Sarah DeLappe) and Taylor Mac’s A 24-Decade History of Popular Music; Broadway musicals Head Over Heels, American Idiot, Bright Star; Off-Broadway’s The Fortress of Solitude (Michael Friedman and Itamar Moses), Sanctuary City (Martyna Majok); the award-winning Peanut Butter Falcon (Tyler Nilson and Michael Schwartz); multiple collaborations with Ngozi Anyanwu, Jocelyn Bioh, Halley Feiffer, Zach Helm, Beth Henley, Warren Leight, Mozhan Marnó, Billy Porter, Brian Quijada, Josh Radnor, Duncan Sheik, Steven Sater; and hundreds more.
