Moving to Sunset Park in the spring of 2017 was a huge evolutionary step for Target Margin’s artistic and organizational growth. Although we had been producing / presenting experimental performance for 30 years, we never had a geographic location to ground our work and identity for the future. We are thrilled to be in Sunset Park, a bustling immigrant neighborhood with a historic waterfront. In the past three years of establishing connections in this area, we have developed close relationships with following local organizations. We are excited to partner and grow with them because — as we all know — community is at the heart of theater.
