Spring Gala
Honoring Board Chair Victoria Meakin
Directed by Cheo Bourne
Join us on April 21 at 6 pm for an unforgettable evening at the Edison Ballroom honoring Soho Rep’s Board Chair Victoria Meakin.
Honoree
Soho Rep is honoring Victoria Meakin for five terrific years of service as Board Chair! Additionally, as a bold and successful entrepreneur Victoria is an expert at leading organizations through key moments of growth and change, and Soho Rep is both approaching it’s 50th Anniversary Season and entering a new phase of evolution and capacity building as we embark on a space sharing partnership with Playwrights Horizons and start a search for our next longterm home. Finally, in addition to bringing important art into the world in her role at the theater, Victoria is a passionate political activist who shares the theater’s deep values of civic and social engagement, which are more important to uplift than ever.
About Victoria Meakin

Victoria Meakin is a powerhouse founder, strategic growth expert, and serial entrepreneur. Recently named to the Forbes 50 Over 50 List, she’s currently the Co-Founder & Special Advisor at Ocrolus, one of the fastest-growing fintechs in the U.S. (and a proud alum of the 2022 Forbes Next Billion Dollar Startup List). With clients like PayPal, OnDeck, Best Egg, and Union Home Mortgage, Ocrolus is transforming the lending ecosystem—and Victoria played a key role in its game-changing pivot from healthcare to fintech, helping to raise over $100M along the way. Before Ocrolus, she co-founded PhoneCharge, one of the first e-payment providers that revolutionized the way people pay their bills.
A longtime TriBeCa resident, Victoria raised her two amazing kids, Ellis and Ethan Feldman, there since 1994–and is currently raising her cavapoo Oona there. Beyond the business world, she’s deeply passionate about the arts and civic engagement, and using both to foster community. In addition to her meaningful work at Soho Rep, she also chairs the board of All In Together, a nonprofit dedicated to empowering women to fully engage in civic and political life.

Join the Gala
Time Out New York recently named Soho Rep the “Best Theater in NYC,” saying “Soho Rep isn’t the last word in downtown experimental theater: Better than that, it’s often the first, championing major voices at key points in their careers…and Soho Rep’s low ticket prices help keep some of the city’s bravest, boldest and wildest theater within the reach of all New Yorkers.”
Ticket and table purchases for this year’s Spring Fete will provide us with much-needed funds to support ambitious and socially-relevant upcoming premieres by Nia Akilah Robinson and Jordan Tannahill and enable us to pay the creative teams for both productions a living wage.
