Davenport Hiring a Program Director

Broadway producer Ken Davenport recently bought the theater on 45th Street that was once home to Primary Stages. Now known as the Davenport Theatre, this building is near and dear to my heart. It's where Epiphany Theater Company did a staged reading of The Metric System, where The True Author... Revealed got its premiere, and where Maggie the Pirate was workshopped in the middle of Hurricane Irene!

Now Ken is hiring a program director for that theater. Loyal blog readers, please apply! This is a chance to be a part of a theater with a long and storied history, and hopefully even a longer and better future.

Here's the ad for the position:
