Welcome!
Founded in 1979, TBTB is the only professional Off-Broadway theater company dedicated to advancing artists with disabilities and altering the misperceptions surrounding disability by proving that disability does not affect the quality or integrity of our art or artists.
REUNION!
2025 READING — March 24
2016 FINAL DRESS REHEARSAL — June 11
TBTB capped their hugely successful HUNTER IN FOUR play reading series on Monday, March 24 with a reading of Samuel D. Hunter’s outstanding play, THE HEALING, featuring the original
2016 cast: Mary Theresa Archbold, Shannon DeVido, David Harrell, Lynne Lipton, John McGinty
Jamie Petrone, and Pamela Sabaugh.
TBTB commissioned Sam to write THE HEALING, which we premiered in June 2016!
TBTB worked with Signature Theatre Center to spotlight four of Samuel D. Hunter’s amazing plays in celebration of the world premiere of his latest work, GRANGEVILLE.
In addition to THE HEALING, the three other works we featured in the reading series were:
A GREAT WILDERNESS, CLARKSTON, and THE HARVEST (photos below).
We were overjoyed to play to four sold out houses during our month-long series and look forward to producing future play reading series, which will feature other outstanding playwrights!

Disability is the only diversity that cuts across all racial, gender, social, and class distinctions. Disability knows no age, race, religion, gender, culture, or sexual orientation. As such, we view disability as a common ground, where the voices from every sector of our society can come together to be represented and expressed. A gift to TBTB helps us produce shows that welcome artists with all disabilities, across all forms of creativity. TBTB is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and contributions are tax-deductible.
