The Public Theater is a place for a diverse cross-section of artists and audiences to meet, work, play and enjoy performances. Building upon The Public’s tradition of greater access, The Public Theater’s Capital Project Renovation aims to create a welcoming public space and provide a home for a population as diverse as a New York City subway.
SERVESNEW
The Public’s Capital Project renovation is more than an investment in bricks and mortar, but also an investment in our neighborhood, community, the City of New York and the future of American theater. The goal is to create an inviting venue that is not only a theater, but a seventh stage for audiences and artists to meet, exchange ideas, and address the world in which we live. A place where the meeting of the minds can take place and an emerging writer can have a coffee with a Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright and discuss dramatic form; where a young actor can learn from a seasoned professional about performing Shakespearean text; where two directors can exchange ideas about how to approach a project; where an audience member can ask a playwright about a new play; and where a teenager can meet an artist and learn about a life in the theater.
In essence, The Public Theater’s Capital Project Renovation aims to create a new model of theater: a vibrant, cultural home that welcomes everyone.
“Many of my most satisfying, inspiring and happy theatrical experiences—both as worker and as watcher—have been at The Public. I still get excited when I turn up Lafayette Street and head toward those grand arches and those swaying banners... because I know whatever I’m seeing or doing will be better for being there.” —Michael Cerveris
