About

Formed in 2001 in Provincetown, in the birthplace of American theater, the primary purpose of The Provincetown Theater Foundation (“PTF”) is to encourage, promote, and sustain the performing arts on Outer Cape Cod through a year-round schedule of programming at the Provincetown Theater. The PTF provides performance and educational space for theatrical artists within the Outer Cape Cod community and beyond.

Ways to Give

As we reopen for indoor productions, the Provincetown Theater Foundation is especially thankful for all who donate in support of our organization. In the best of times, our ticket sales to live productions would only cover roughly half of our ongoing expenses, so your generous contributions have and will continue to be crucial to the success of our theater.

Sponsors

A sincere thank you to all of our generous sponsors!
