A Letter from the presidents
Welcome to The Town Hall. “It doesn’t matter who you are or where you are from, you are welcome here….” So said the League of Political Education when they opened Town Hall as a monument to women’s suffrage in 1921. The Hall was built to hold the League’s town meetings, the conversational events they hosted to discuss all sides of important issues. They knew that opening minds through life-long learning was required not just for the new voters, but for all voters. Very quickly, the League (renamed The Town Hall in 1937) realized that the acoustics that McKim, Mead & White had designed for conversation (to insure everyone could hear everyone else) worked perfectly for music as well. With the ethos of inclusion and open minds, Town Hall has hosted a cavalcade of controversial meetings and “edgy” performances over its storied 98-year existence. After all, in 1928 it was considered avant-garde to host Andres Segovia; New Yorkers were not quite ready for a classical guitar concert. With open arms and great delight, we welcome John Cameron Mitchell and Steven Trask’s ORIGIN OF LOVE to our stage. And we thank everyone at Joe’s Pub for helping us present this celebration of 25 years of HEDWIG and 50 years of World Pride. These shows represent the end of our 2018-19 Town Hall Presents season. It was another extraordinary year for Town Hall and thank you for being part of it. From everyone at Town Hall – thank you for coming, please enjoy the show.

TOUR T H E H I S T O R I C T O W N H A L L Town Hall has played an integral part in the electrifying cultural fabric of New York City for more than 90 years. A group of Suffragists’ fight for the 19th Amendment led them to build a meeting space to educate people on the important issues of the day. During its construction, the 19th Amendment was passed, and on January 12, 1921 The Town Hall opened its doors and took on a double meaning: as a symbol of the victory sought by its founders, and as a spark for a new, more optimistic climate. In 1921, German composer Richard Strauss performed a series of concerts that cemented the Hall’s reputation as an ideal venue for musical performances. Since, Town Hall has been home to countless musical milestones: The US debuts of Strauss, and Isaac Stern; Marian Anderson’s first New York recital; in 1945, Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker introduced bebop to the world; Bob Dylan’s first major concert in ‘63; and much much more.
