Manhattan Theatre Lab High School was a small public high school in Manhattan, New York, dedicated to combining rigorous academic education with comprehensive theatre arts training. Located at 122 Amsterdam Avenue, this school emphasized artistic expression as a core component of student life, fostering creativity and collaboration among its students. The institution offered a range of programs in acting, stage design, and production alongside its standard academic curriculum. Unfortunately, due to various challenges including enrollment and funding issues, Manhattan Theatre Lab High School was closed in 2014. The closure was part of a larger effort by the education authorities to phase out underperforming schools and replace them with new, smaller high schools.
