IMPORTANT:

To best provide Free Shakespeare for All, we are offering both Full Capacity and Physically Distanced seating in The Delacorte Theater.

Before reserving tickets, I understand the following:

Full Capacity Sections

  • Reserved for those, 12 years or older, who have been COVID-19 vaccinated.
  • Must show proof of full vaccination before entering the theater.
  • Seats have no physical distancing. People sitting in these sections will be sitting directly next to other people.
  • Children, 11 years or younger, may accompany their vaccinated parent or guardian.

Physically Distanced Sections

  • Recommended for those who are not COVID-19 vaccinated, or the vaccination status of an individual(s) in the party is unknown.
  • No proof of negative testing required for entry.
  • Seats are limited, and can be reserved in pods of 1 seat or 2 seats.
  • All seating pods are separated by unoccupied seats around it.

Face Masks

  • Everyone, regardless of vaccination status, must always wear a face mask for entry into the theater and when moving around. Those in Full Capacity sections have the option to remove their mask when sitting in their ticketed seat. Those in Physically Distanced sections must always keep a face mask on, except while eating and drinking.

You can find further details and specifics at our SAFE IN THE PARK page, which is subject to change at any time.

We are excited to welcome you back to The Public’s flagship home at Astor Place. We ask that you read and understand the following when accessing tickets.

SUPPORTERS

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 live theater to New York.* Your level of support receives access to reserved seats for Free Shakespeare in the Park 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. You'll also have access to discounted tickets throughout the Astor Place Season.  

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. 

Join in or renew into the Public Supporter community today, to enjoy access to the in-person and digital benefits listed below. 

 

*In order to keep as many seats available to the general public for free, there are a limited number of reserved seats available for our Partners, Young Partners and Supporter Plus donors that help to keep Shakespeare in the Park available and free for thousands of people all summer season.
