What Will the Neighbors Say?

Today, we are launching an anniversary campaign lovingly called $10,000 for 10 Years. 

We have been honored over this past decade to present 12 original productions, hire 400 artists, and share work with 3000 audience members in the US and abroad.

Now we are turning to you to help us get to the next stage as we celebrate this exciting milestone. By donating to this campaign, you can help us bring our World Premiere Off-Broadway co-production of Beauty Freak to the cell theatre in April 2026.

Of everything we have done in this decade, we are most proud of our impact on our community. 

Here’s what folks have said of our work over the last ten years:

“Through this remarkable convergence of artistic expression and cultural celebration, What Will the Neighbors Say? established an unforgettable space for unity” - Black Girls do Theater

“Their work embodies the spirit of creativity, diversity, and innovation that defines New York City” - New York City Councilor CM Hudson

“WWTNS? is an innovative programming partner that employs an inclusive approach to artmaking and storytelling” - Natalie Milbrodt, Queens Memory Project

“Keep producing such interesting, thought-provoking theater!” - Audience Member from At the Barricades

Here’s what your support can help us achieve this year:

 an Off-Broadway production of Beauty Freak, our deeply anti-fascist play about the rise of fascism in the US and abroad

 our legacy of creating work that pushes the envelope and incites rowdy and rigorous debate

 that, in this moment, speaking truth to power is more vital than ever

10 members of the Neighborhood made a gift of $1,000 each

20 members of the Neighborhood made a gift of $500 each

50 members of the Neighborhood made a gift of $200 each

100 members of the Neighborhood made a gift of $100 each

Your tax-deductible donation today, or through the end of the year, will be crucial in getting us across the finish line to bring Beauty Freak Off-Broadway this spring.

Every donation is vital to our Neighborhood and will help us not only sustain but grow the community of artists, audiences, and Neighbors we have built over the last ten years.
