New York City Center

New York City Center is a historic arts venue in Midtown founded with the intention to make the performing arts accessible to all audiences. City Center primarily features theater and dance performances, with series like the Fall for Dance Festival (which features dance companies of all kinds, for low prices) and the Tony-honored Encores! series (which revives older Broadway musicals in concert versions). The Principal Dance Company Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater performs each year, and there is also the artist-curated Artists at the Center series.

Hunter students reading the program before a performance at New York City Center

“At NYC Center’s Encore! series, I got to see Urinetown for free with the Office of the Arts. It was really special to me because I performed that musical when I was in high school, so to see it performed by stars like Jordan Fisher and Rainn Wilson was incredibly inspiring. It’s nice to see this show means as much to others as it does to me."

Katrina Carlyle, Theatre ’25

City Center has offered internships and producing observerships exclusively to Hunter students, to allow them to immerse themselves in City Center’s production process. Sign up for the OOA newsletter to hear about future opportunities.

City Center offers $23 same-day tickets to students for select performances, and people ages 40 and under can register for the free access club for $28 tickets to any City Center production.
