• New Spaces, New Works, New Audiences, The Campaign for Queens Theatre in the Park
QTP has recently completed a $ 23 million physical transformation of the Theatre. This major capital investment has added a 75-seat cabaret performance space with a full service cafe and kitchen facility; created a dramatic new 3,000 square foot lobby/reception area; provided new visitor amenities and improved the facility’s accessibility. These improvements have transformed Queens Theatre in the Park into a destination for the residents of the borough and beyond.
Seizing the opportunity offered by our exciting new space, the Theatre’s Board of Directors has launched a campaign to raise $2 million in private funds to assure the Theatre’s sustained health and dynamic future.
Please remember Queens Theatre in the Park is is a not-for-profit organization. Your donation is tax deductible as provided by law.
