"For
a long time afterwards, you will remember moments
from the play and at the right time relate them
to your personal life. That’s good theater."

Stageworks/Hudson
a brief history
In February 2004, Stageworks acquired
a 40,000 square foot warehouse through the kind and
extremely generous donation of Richard Katzman and
Kaz, Inc.
Believed to have originally been
a candlestick making facility, then later a fly-paper
factory, the original brick building is over 100 years
old.
When Mr. Katzman's grandfather, Maximillian,
bought the building in 1959, it was enlarged to house
an international manufacturing plant.
In August 2004, only four months
after acquiring the old Kaz building, and with the
help of Assemblyman Patrick Manning and Hudson Mayor
Rick Scalera, Stageworks proudly opened it's doors
with its inaugural season in it's new home, a theater
named for Mr. Katzman's grandparents, The Max
and Lillian Katzman Theater.
