In September 2022, after 78 years, Performing Arts Insider took its final bow.
Much gratitude to the subscribers, readers, press/publicity people, theater companies, producers, and well-wishers who helped make it such a wonderful publication.
For 78 years Performing Arts Insider
was the leading source of information
about the performing arts in New York City and around the country.
Each hardcopy issue of PAI included day-by-day calendar listings and comprehensive theater guides of shows ON BROADWAY, OFF & OFF-OFF-BROADWAY, plus DANCE, OPERA, CABARET, AWARDS & SPECIAL EVENTS!
Turn to PAI for all the creative, technical and box-office details for every show on the stages of New York.
Plus: contact information for producers, press agents, general managers and casting directors. Not only that, PAI offers rumors on upcoming big shows, annual season previews, and other special, useful and enjoyable features.

PAI's editor-in-chief, Dave Lefkowitz (left), is the founder of TotalTheater.com and former managing editor of Playbill.com. Co-publisher Richmond Shepard (right) has been a respected producer, director, performer and theater owner for more than half a century. Together, they bring more than 80 years of experience covering theater from the inside - to the Insider.
PAI is a must for anyone working in the theater, covering the theater for print or media, or for anyone who simply loves the theater and wants the inside scoop! But don't just take our word for it:
"Performing Arts Insider is a goldmine of information for the theater professional. I refer to it regularly." Tom Creamer, Dramaturg, Goodman Theater
"As doctors use the Physician's Desk Reference, as attorneys use Westlaw, I use my Performing Arts Insider. It's all the facts at your fingertips." Sherry Eaker, former editor-in-chief, Backstage
