Producers' Club offers five theaters seating 27 to 63 people for company meetings, product launches, investor pitches, screenings and private events, plus a bar and lounge for receptions. The venue is at 358 West 44th Street in Manhattan's Theater District, New York, and the company dates its work there to 1995.
Seminars and company events
All five theaters also work as presentation rooms. Each one has a 4K projector, 7.1 surround sound, a Mac mini, theater seating, a stage and stage lighting, and an on-site facility manager is present during bookings. Presenters bring their files on a USB or external drive or play them from Dropbox, Google Drive, Vimeo or a link; laptops cannot be plugged in directly. Microphones, a podium, a clicker and a technician can be added. The venue lists product launches, investor pitches and demo days, workshops and trainings, company meetings and town halls, author talks, panels and Q&A sessions, and award nights among the uses. A presentation can end in the bar, which can be booked with the room.
Weddings and receptions
The venue does not market itself for weddings. For parties, launch receptions, industry mixers, opening nights and after-parties, the Bar & Lounge takes standing or seated formats and can be booked on its own or together with a theater, a studio or the podcast studio.
Rooms and capacities
The Grand seats 63 and has a 200-inch screen. The Crown seats 56 with a 150-inch screen, the Sonnet 51 with a 200-inch screen, the Royal 45 with a 180-inch screen and the Prince 27 with a 150-inch screen. The bar has no fixed published capacity; the venue mentions launch parties of about 20 to 50 people there. The building also has rehearsal studios, a room called the Red Carpet Room and a video podcast studio for filming, recording and mixing.
Catering
Producers' Club runs a cash bar serving spirits, beer and wine, and it accepts major cards. Its pages do not describe food service, so ask about food and outside caterers when you request a quote.
History and setting
The company has operated since 1995 and is open seven days a week, from morning to late night. Its theaters host plays, musicals, comedy, readings and film screenings, so the building works like a small off-Broadway house rather than a hotel conference floor. That suits a launch or a screening that needs a real stage, a large screen and proper sound for an audience of a few dozen. Theaters can also be booked for rehearsals, and late-night slots are offered for performances.
Getting there
The venue is on West 44th Street west of Eighth Avenue, a short walk from Times Square and the Port Authority Bus Terminal. Several subway lines stop at the Times Square and 42nd Street stations nearby, and Penn Station is a short taxi or subway ride south. Booking is online or by phone and text.
