About an hour and a half outside New York City in the ocean side town of Asbury park lies the Revision theatre, a non-profit regional housed in an historic carousel house that was once part of Asbury's Palace Amusement Park.

'Dedicated to producing invigorating theatre with a fresh new perspective', the company offers both original and revival productions, with the current season leaning towards edgier fare.
