The Public Supporter Program fuels The Public’s mission to create theater that is of, by and for all people. The annual support of those who contribute at the Supporter and Supporter Plus giving levels below, has allowed us to continue our work, for over a half century, as a civic institution engaging with some of the most important ideas and social issues of today, reimagining what theater can be.
As a Supporter Plus, starting at $25 per month, you can be part of the return of Free Shakespeare in the Park at The Delacorte Theater. Your support has access to reserved seats for this beloved summer tradition while also helping to provide free tickets to thousands of people throughout the summer. In order to keep the majority of tickets available for free, there are only a limited number of reserved seats available.
As a Supporter, starting at $10 per month, your support is vital in our ability to return and rebuild the joy of live theater at our flagship theater at 425 Lafayette and in communities across New York City while giving voice to a wide breadth of innovative artists and storytellers.
