Philadelphia’s Professional Theatres: A Snapshot analyzes data from professional theatres that participated in the Pennsylvania Cultural Data Project. The strengths of Philadelphia’s theatres include increased attendance, a growing number of contributors, more trustee and foundation support than peer theatres, and total expenses that are under control.

This report is a project of the Theatre Alliance of Greater Philadelphia, with funding, guidance and support from The Pew Center for Arts and Heritage through the Philadelphia Theatre Initiative and additional funding from the National Endowment for the Arts.
