Theatre Forward board member Thomas C. Quick opened his well-appointed Sutton Place home in anticipation of their 2017 Chairman’s Awards Gala in April, marking 40 years of American theater support. By fostering meaningful new works at regional nonprofit theaters, as well as providing arts education programs for communities, Theatre Forward is responsible, year after year, for many of the plays that mark the Broadway season. This year, The Great Comet of 1812, Anastasia, Come From Away, and Dear Evan Hansen were all incubated at one of their network of 19 leading nonprofit regional theatres across the country.
