Organizational Profile Located on the picturesque site of a former mill along the banks of the Delaware River, Bucks County Playhouse is in the heart of New Hope, Pennsylvania, about an hour from New York City and Philadelphia. The structure was originally built in 1790 when owner Benjamin Parry rebuilt the Hope Mills, which had recently burned down; the newly christened New Hope Mills inspired the village to change its name to New Hope.
