A subscription to a performing arts theater like Pittsburgh Public Theater isn’t like your subscription to Netflix or Spotify – season tickets to live arts offer a unique blend of cultural enrichment, community engagement, and exceptional value that you won't find elsewhere. Here’s why subscribing to Pittsburgh Public Theater – or any arts organization – is a decision you won’t regret:

1. Elevated Experience with Prime Seating: 

Subscribing ensures you have access to the best seats in the house for every performance. By becoming a season ticket holder, you not only enjoy unparalleled views of the stage but also provide crucial support for public arts initiatives in your community.

2. Affordable Entertainment with Substantial Savings: 

Save up to 45% over individual tickets when you subscribe to Pittsburgh Public Theater, with deep discounts on nearly all season tickets or arts memberships at other organizations. Your subscription not only offers exceptional value for money but also contributes directly to the sustainability of public arts programs, making live theater accessible to all.

3. Priority Access to Tickets for Exclusive Events: 

Gain early access to tickets and special events before they're available to the general public. As a subscriber, you play a pivotal role in fostering a vibrant arts scene in your city and ensuring that diverse voices and stories are celebrated on stage.

4. Flexible Ticket Exchanges for Peace of Mind: 

Benefit from free and flexible ticket exchanges to accommodate changes in your schedule, even up to the day-of with Walk-In Exchanges. Have a sudden conflict come up and want to change your performance date? Can’t make this show and want to gift your tickets to a friend? Your season tickets give you the flexibility to enjoy live theater on your terms, in ways that fit with your lifestyle. 

5. Community Engagement and Connection: 

Subscribing to an arts organization fosters a sense of belonging and community spirit. By attending performances regularly, you become part of a vibrant cultural ecosystem where you can connect with like-minded individuals who share your passion for the arts. At The Public, you can join other season ticket holders at  regular events like our Wine Wednesday series or our Theater on Tap tastings with Barrel & Flow. 

6. Cultural Enrichment and Education: 

Theater subscriptions provide opportunities for continuous learning and cultural enrichment . By exposing yourself to a broad range of performances, you broaden your horizons, gain new perspectives, and deepen your appreciation for the arts.

7. Support for Local Artists and Creatives: 

By subscribing to a theater, you directly support local artists, actors, directors, and creatives who bring productions to life. Your subscription dollars, just like gifts you make to The Public, contribute to the livelihoods of these talented individuals, helping to sustain and nurture the local arts community.
