10. Post Theatre

Post Theatre

Post Theatre, located in Building T4 at Fort Tilden, in the Rockaways is home to Rockaway Theatre Company. The fort was established in 1917, though it was an important military installation dating to the War of 1812. The now defunct fort serves the community with its beautiful beaches and a rich cultural arts center. Roger Gonzalez, Editor of Local Theatre New York says that the “coolest thing is the structure [Building T4 ] itself has not changed from its original appearance, especially the exterior. Inside, the seats are original except for thecushions. The place has character and has transitioned well”. Fort Tilden is on the National Register of Historic Places.
