The organization operates multiple performance spaces at its landmark home in the East Village, known as the Joseph Papp Public Theater, named after its founder, Joseph Papp. The complex includes the 299-seat Anspacher Theater, the 266-seat LuEsther Hall, and the smaller Shiva Theater. In addition to its main location, The Public Theater also presents productions at various other venues throughout New York City, including the Delacorte Theater in Central Park, where the renowned Shakespeare in the Park series takes place during the summer months.

In addition to its mainstage productions, The Public Theater offers a range of artistic initiatives and community programs. These include artist residencies, developmental workshops, educational initiatives, and free or low-cost ticketing programs to make theater accessible to a broader audience. The Public Theater's commitment to fostering new voices and engaging with the community has made it an influential force in the American theater landscape. Its productions often provoke thought, challenge conventions, and inspire dialogue, reflecting its mission to ignite the imagination and spark conversation through the power of theater.}
