Long Wharf Theatre’s current offering of A View from the Bridge takes audiences to the Canal Dock Boathouse on Long Wharf Drive, to let its sweeping view of the Q bridge and the waters of New Haven Harbor act as scenic backdrop to the play. The play’s setting among Italian longshoremen in Brooklyn is well served by the location, and the theater has thoughtfully provided a shuttle that runs from the nearby IKEA parking lot to the Boathouse.
