Off-Off-Broadway theatrical productions in
New York City are those in theatres that are smaller than
Broadway and
Off-Broadway theatres. Off-Off-Broadway theatres are usually theatres that have fewer than 100 seats, though the term can be used for any show in the New York City area that employs
union actors but is not under an
Off-Broadway,
Broadway, or
League of Resident Theatres contract. It is often used as a term relating to any show with non-union actors. The shows range from professional productions by established artists to small amateur performances.
