Anne Hamburger (born c. 1954)[1] is a theatre manager and producer.
Career[edit]
Hamburger founded and led En Garde Arts from 1986 until 1999.[1] The company put on large site-specific performances across New York City at venues including Bow Bridge (Central Park) and Hotel Chelsea. It won six Obie Awards.[2] She was then named artistic director of La Jolla Playhouse in San Diego and after one year moved on to become executive vice president for Walt Disney Creative Entertainment.[3] She produced Disney's Aladdin: A Musical Spectacular and Finding Nemo – The Musical.[1][4]
After eight years at Disney, Hamburger returned to En Garde Arts and to producing off-Broadway theatre.[5] In 2017, she produced and co-wrote the play Wilderness which explored the issues created by sending children on wilderness therapy camps.[6][7]
Following a pause in creative activities due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, Hamburger curated a free performing arts festival in New York City in May 2021.[8]
