The Public Theater of San Antonio

The Public Theater of San Antonio produces live professional theater that inspires, educates, and connects communities. The Public Theater works to produce high quality theatrical productions year-round in multiple venues contributing to its reputation as the city's center for professional locally-produced theater as well as contributing to the city’s economic and cultural growth. Theater for all serves as our vision as an arts center for South Texas. The Public Theater of San Antonio is the longest running theater in South Texas, producing shows in one of the country's oldest municipally run playhouses. It was established in 1912 as the San Antonio Dramatic Club and incorporated on April 6, 1927 as the San Antonio Little Theatre. The Public Theater has seen many company and leadership changes over the last century, operating as a community theater and transitioning in 2017 to the only AEA union theater of professional productions produced here in San Antonio. Under new leadership as of Fall of 2021, The Public Theater of San Antonio is transforming and growing, focusing programming and outreach efforts on developing new audiences, better reflecting the diverse people of San Antonio, and working to contribute to San Antono's vibrant cultural economy and quality of life.
