Polish Theatre Institute in the USA PTI

The Polish Theatre Institute is a nonprofit organization, active since 1980,
dedicated to creating, producing and presenting diverse theatre experiences that build bridges across social boundaries.
In particular, we try to reach generations that are often under served, preparing distinct, interactive programs for seniors and for young students.
Education is fundamental to PTI’s mission, and we fulfill our commitment through the diversified program “Education Through Theatre” that allows us
to share our theatre expertise and passion with students, parents and teachers.
Furthermore, we want to nurture the professional development of theatre artists of Polish origins, building networks of contacts and support.
Whether we address general audience, the elderly or the very young, we are driven by the belief that theatre is an essential cultural force that can offer a trans-formative experience. Increasing empathy, open-mindedness and mutual understanding,
it celebrates life.
