A Space
for Make-Believe.
Founded in 2015, The Eno River Players is a non-profit theater based in New York City and Durham, NC, dedicated to revitalizing classical theater in America. Our shows are affordable, short, and open-hearted. We believe in doing more with less. We believe in respecting audiences’ time, sophistication, and desire for authenticity. We believe in doing hard things and not knowing all the answers. And we believe that there are kinds of joy, wonder, and truth that are only possible in the theater.
