Beautiful Soup Theater was founded in the summer of 2010 by its Artistic Director, Steven Carl McCasland. A continuation of a student group he founded while at Pace University (Group Therapy Productions, 2005-2009), Beautiful Soup Theater produces work that speaks to the heart of our community. Exploring classics and re-visiting lost works that never reached their true pinnacle, The Soup chooses a charitable organization whose mission matches the theme at hand and a portion of profits made at the box office, along with donations collected by actors after each performance, are donated to that charity. Our one-night-only benefit concerts and readings, however, see their full profit donated to the charity, along with post-show door collections.
If the writer(s) of the piece are available, we reach out and ask if they'd like to choose a charity important to them. But if they are unavailable, we select the charity by highlighting an important theme of the piece at hand and choosing a charity in the Tri-State Area that we feel best matches that theme. For example, Crossing Brooklyn, a musical about a teacher, benefited Artists Striving to End Poverty, who visit third-world countries to teach the arts. We've also benefited wonderful organizations like Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, The Fortune Society and The Arc of Westchester. In addition, we've made some strong and wonderful bonds with theatre luminaries, like Phyllis Newman, Julie Halston and Brad Ross.
While serving the community, the Soup strives to bring back lost plays and musicals that never reached their true pinnacle. While some may call these selections "flops", we like to think of them as misunderstood works that deserve a second look.

Crossing Brooklyn: the musical
A Doll's Life: the musical
