History

M&M Productions Acting Company, Inc. was named Hudson Valley Magazine’s“Editor’s Choice” for the brilliant production of Comedies at Work, a series of corporate satires by award-winning authors Albi Gorn and Jim Whalen. The company was featured in The New York Times for its sizzling staging of Dinner with Friends and M&M’s excellent Alice in Wonderland was selected as one of three “must sees” in Westchester County by Channel 12. Peter Kramer of The Journal News called M&M “Library Impresarios.” M&M has been selected as a Westchester Magazine “Best of Westchester” for Theatre and is a proud member of Theater Resources Unlimited.

This March, M&M Performing Arts  will be bringing a new season to the Grand Picture Gallery at Lyndhurst Mansion this fall!

With over 100 productions traveling to more than 75 venues in the Hudson Valley and Connecticut, M&M continues to tickle, shock and inspire audiences, producing classic and contemporary plays and developing new works.
