Theatre Development Fund (TDF) has played a unique role in strengthening live theater and dance in New York City since 1968. This nonprofit service organization’s programs have filled over 76 million seats at discount prices (with theater lovers who would normally not be able to attend live performance) and returned nearly 2 billion dollars in revenue to thousands of theater, dance and music productions.

Best known for its TKTS Discount Booths, TDF’s membership, voucher, access and education programs, as well as its Costume Collection, help to make the unique experience of theater available to everyone. For more information, go to www.tdf.org.
