Land Acknowledgment

Playwrights Horizons acknowledges that our theater, located on the island of Manhattan (Mannahatta), is situated on land that is Lenapehoking, Homeland of the Lenape. We pay respect to the Lenape peoples, Lenape elders, and their ancestors, past, present and future. 

As our theater’s work and community extends beyond this island, we acknowledge that the Northeast is the homeland of many Indigenous Nations. Playwrights Horizons pays respect to all Indigenous peoples who have stewarded this land throughout the generations, and to their ongoing contributions, culturally, intellectually, artistically and spiritually.
