View Photo Album Actor, comedian, writer, producer, and former New 42 intern Billy Eichner made two heartfelt requests from the stage: Bring a kid in your life to the theater. We have lots of great shows to see in 2026 and we’d love to see you there. Make a donation in support of the programs that make New Victory such a special place. Making a charitable contribution by December 31 will maximize your impact* and help us share more New Victory magic for the next 30 years. I’m very grateful to be part of this 30-year-old community that welcomes New York’s kids and families into a place of creativity and immeasurable joy. Thank you all for making it so.
