The Public Theater

The Young Partners Program


Our Young Partners are a dynamic group of New Yorkers in their 20s and 30s who share a passion for The Public Theater’s mission to make great art accessible to all. Through groundbreaking productions of new works and the classics, free Shakespeare in Central Park, and diverse concerts and performances at Joe’s Pub, our Partners celebrate and support The Public through special events and initiatives throughout the year. Led by our Late Nite Committee for Young Partners, members of the program receive a variety of benefits, including invitations to parties, plays, discussions and performances with up-and-coming actors, writers, directors, musicians, artists, and art-lovers alike.
