You don’t have to cross the Hudson for a great night of theater. New Brunswick’s downtown is one of New Jersey’s busiest arts districts.
The main stages
- State Theatre New Jersey — a restored 1921 theater hosting Broadway tours, concerts and comedy
- George Street Playhouse — a professional theater company founded in 1974
- New Brunswick Performing Arts Center — opened in 2019, home to several resident companies
- Crossroads Theatre — a nationally known company founded in 1978
Museums
The Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers, founded in 1966, holds a wide-ranging collection and is an easy add-on to a day downtown.
Show-night tips
- Book dinner nearby and plan to arrive 30 minutes before curtain
- Agree on a pickup spot a block from the theater to skip the crowd
- Ride with us and skip the parking deck entirely
