Winter WonderFest
Winter WonderFest is back! This year, we’re inviting you into the magic of CO_LAB classrooms—and into the spotlight.
Join us as we rotate ’round studios at 520 8th Avenue witnessing behind-the-scenes sharings from our Fall Acts I and II Core classes.
The Fabulist: Tales from The Hearth - CO_LAB’s 2025 Puppetry Production
Settle in with a cup of tea by the fire as we gather ’round a reclusive adventurer’s cabin, where he shares stories from a life of daring exploits—all brought to life through the magic of puppetry.
Rod puppets, shadows, hand puppets, and more come together in this original production, devised and performed by CO_LAB’s Act III Puppetry ensemble. Gather 'round the hearth with us at wild project and let these incredible tales carry you somewhere new.
Gather ’Round: CO_LAB’s Spring Showcase
Gather ’round for the grand finale of our Act I and II classes as our actors share the culmination of their semester’s creativity with friends, family—and you!
Featuring original scenes devised by our Spring ensembles, Gather ’Round brings our Act I and II Ensembles together for one joyful, original showcase.
Another Round! CO_LAB’s Spring Benefit
Celebrate another year ’round the calendar—and enjoy another round (or two)—at our Spring Benefit! With cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and a whole lot of heart, this annual gathering is your chance to raise a glass, raise your paddle, and raise vital funds to keep CO_LAB’s programs free for hundreds of actors across NYC.
A CO_LAB Original Musical (Title TBA)
Every year, our Musical Theater Production class creates a brand-new musical—and this year, we’re changing our perspective. Literally. We can’t tell you the title just yet, but we can tell you that this year’s world premiere will be staged in the round—so no matter where you sit, you’ll be right in the middle of the action.
The Getaway CO_LABaret
Pack your bags—on Wednesday, November 5th our annual CO_LABaret benefit is taking you on a journey ’round the world!
Hosted by Jaz Astwood and Paul DeVincenzo and featuring performances by five CO_LAB Actors alongside five CO_LAB Teaching Artists, this trip’s even got an extra-special travel companion: Liam Pearce (How to Dance in Ohio, &Juliet) joins as our headliner.
