Production History
30 Plays in 30 Days
In June 2020, to celebrate our 30th Season despite the pandemic, The Public Theatre’s social media accounts took a trip down memory lane and shared never before seen photographs and fun facts from each of our previous 29 seasons. One season per day. You can view these posts in a Facebook Album.
On this page we have continued to provide links to our recent seasons so the journey is complete.
We encourage you to take that walk now and remember your own unique memories and experiences of The Public Theatre and to please consider making a donation to help support our future.
