Prototype is an annual festival of opera-theatre and music-theatre produced by HERE and Beth Morrison Projects. In 2017, with 31 performances of 7 different productions for an audience of nearly 10,000, PROTOTYPE's 5th Anniversary Season (Jan 5-15 2017) was our most prodigious festival yet. Audiences and critics alike lauded our achievements, noting that PROTOTYPE "has become essential to the evolution of American opera." (The New Yorker), and "vital...the city’s most important spotlight on contemporary opera, broadly defined." (The New York Times)

You'll enjoy two tickets to any Prototype Performance in 2018 and dinner for two at Local and Vine one of our favorite local restaurants.  

Local & Vine, offers an array of local wines, craft beers and carefully sourced ‘aperitivi’ to the growing  professional and residential populations of West Soho/Hudson Square. Wine pairings curated by Alex Clifford and spotlighting local New York vineyards take center stage, complemented by a light menu developed by chef, Lindsay Smith Anton, and an array of local craft beers, both on tap and bottled.
