The 13th Street Repertory Company, which opened in 1972, is one of the oldest #OffOffBroadway theaters in New York City. This little theater with a red awning never produced cultural titans like Philip Glass or Sam Shepard, and it hasn’t been a formal repertory company for about a decade. Its biggest claim to fame, “Line,” the longest running play in New York, has also been on hiatus since the spring. Further complicating the theater’s legacy: its petite and fiery founder, Edith O’Hara, is now 100. Her age is no insignificant detail at 13th Street. It looms over everything. “Edith is the Rep, and the Rep is Edith,” was a common sentiment echoed in interviews. But whatever the future holds, 13th Street will probably not be a major player in theater history. Instead, it seems more poised to be remembered as an unruly wild child of Off Off Broadway, an approachable haven from the cutthroat world of New York theater. “It was like Ellis Island for young actors arriving in New York,” said Israel Horovitz, the 78-year-old playwright who wrote “Line.” “I don’t think anyone expected a big break at the Rep, but maybe what they got was more valuable. No one was getting rich. You cleaned toilets. But she made these young actors feel like they were real working artists in New York.” @jtaggfoto photographed a few of the theater’s 65 tattered seats.
