Here is what Local and Industy press have said about Horse Trade

"If it’s fun, funky, artsy, absurd and original, chances are it’s probably from the folks at Horse Trade Theater Group"
Scott Stiffler

"...arguably the epicenter of the independent theater world in New York."
-- Leonard Jacobs

"For those wanting to mount a short run late at night
for a small out-of-pocket expense, Horse Trade may be your best bet"

"Companies tend to establish a reputation around
the Horse Trade theatres"

"A mecca for teriffic off off Broadway theater"
Martin Denton

"The crown jewel of Horse Trade Theater [The Kraine Theater] is one helluva lovely, semi-precious stone. Inexpensive, and worth far more than just a second look, this space has replaced downtown mainstays like P.S. 122 and La MaMa as the Lower East Side's most vibrant off-off-Broadway theater. A half-dozen resident companies call it home, including the brilliant Big Art Group, the cultish Pumpkin Pie and Kirk Wood Bromley's Inverse Theatre."

"In the East Village, one can catch shows at the Horse Trade trifecta:
the Kraine, the Red Room, and the St. Marks Theater."
