Community Engagement Nights

As we look ahead to our upcoming 2023–24 Season, The Public Theater team has made the difficult decision to pause our production schedule to focus on financial recovery. Learn more about this here: Save the Playhouse.

With this development, our originally scheduled Community Engagement Nights for Twelfth Night have been cancelled. We are so sorry for any inconvenience. As we move forward into our season, we will be sure to update you on the status of future Community Engagement Nights and their accompanying productions.

If you have any questions, please reach out to Christina Casella, Managing Director at christina@thepublicsa.org.


Community Engagement Nights at The Public Theater of San Antonio are an exclusive performance for youth, ages 12-18, and underserved populations to attend a production in the Russell Hill Rogers Theater at The San Pedro Playhouse. These performances provide access to educational learning experiences in the creative arts and professional live theater. Also, performances foster positive youth development and individual personal growth through increased self-expression, social engagement and exposure to potential career opportunities. Engagement Nights are made possible through the generosity of foundations and corporations.
Community Engagement Nights provide a no-cost opportunity for students and underserved community members to attend a live theater performance. The performance will include a post-show interactive discussion with the stage actors and production crew on the show’s theme, personal reflections, and career opportunities in theater. All program participants will receive a post-performance survey to provide feedback on the quality of their theater experience and quality of the performance.

Participation in Engagement Nights- All 15 Bexar County School Districts, Boys & Girls Clubs, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Arms of Hope, Alpha Home, THRIVE Youth Center, KIPP Schools, San Antonio Christian Schools
