Joe's Pub at The Public Theater (Director, Shanta Thake; General Manager, Kevin Abbott) debuted in October of 1998 as a performance space dedicated to presenting artists across a variety of genres, and was founded on the principle of showcasing affordable, accessible, and quality entertainment to the people of New York. The intimate space quickly became one of New York's most in demand venues for music, theater, cabaret, dance, and comedy, presenting artists from over 90 countries.  The Village Voice voted Joe's Pub the "Best Excuse to Let a Single Venue Dictate Your Taste".  Newsweek calls the club "one of the country's best small stages" and New York Magazine raves "you never know what you'll find next at Joe's Pub, but you can count on the fact that it will be good, very good."

THE PUBLIC THEATER (Artistic Director, Oskar Eustis; Executive Director, Andrew D. Hamingson) was founded by Joseph Papp in 1954 as the Shakespeare Workshop and is now one of the nation's preeminent cultural institutions, producing new plays, musicals, productions of Shakespeare, and other classics at its headquarters on Lafayette Street and at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park.  The Public's mandate to create theater for all New Yorkers continues to this day on stage and through its extensive outreach and education programs.  Each year, over 250,000 people attend Public Theater-related productions and events at six downtown stages, including Joe's Pub, and Shakespeare in the Park.  The Public has won 41 Tony Awards, 145 Obies, 39 Drama Desk Awards, 24 Lucille Lortel Awards and 4 Pulitzer Prizes
