Your gift does more than support the arts. It transforms lives.  

At the Pittsburgh Playhouse at Point Park University, we believe in the power of live performance to connect people, inspire imagination, and enrich our communities. As we look ahead to our 100th anniversary, your support fuels a future where creativity thrives, and every story matters.  

When you support the Playhouse, you are making an IMPACT that allows us to:  

Inspire the next generation of artists to develop their dreams into reality. 

Move audiences to engage, feel and experience the power of the arts.  

Produce over 150 performances annually to expose our community to mindful storytelling.  

Art-centered initiatives that empower students and enrich the community. 

Create magical memories through family friendly and accessible sensory friendly shows. 

Transform lives by exposing students, youth, partners, and patrons to make meaningful connections. 

 

BY THE NUMBERS
Because of your generosity, the Pittsburgh Playhouse continues to grow as a regional leader in arts production and education.  

BEYOND THE STAGE - DID YOU KNOW ?  

  • The Pittsburgh Playhouse is home to one of the largest producing theaters in the region. Last year, the team hosted 330 events and produced over 150 performances. From design to build, the Playhouse serves as a creative haven for the development of young aspiring artists to work side by side with arts professionals while honing their craft.  
  • The Pittsburgh Playhouse produces a specially designed program for neurodivergent individuals with sensory processing difficulties, special needs, and disabilities. The performance is created with original content including singing, dancing, and poetry readings in a concert style format. The entire theater offers a relaxed environment including house lights up and production sound down. Patrons are welcome to enter and exit the theater as needed. A quiet room for calming is available just off the grand lobby.  
  • The Pittsburgh Playhouse offers four festivals annually including the community focused Fall Fest, Fall into Dance Festival, Fall into Theatre Festival and the Steel City High School Film and Animation Festival. Each opportunity offers a unique professional development workshop series for young aspiring artists to explore, engage, and empower their talent. 
    • Fall Fest welcomed over 3,000 new visitors to downtown Pittsburgh last year. 
    • First year education festivals and workshops welcomed over 500 youth and are now offered annually.
