In a spirit of gratitude, we acknowledge that People’s Light stands on the unceded ancestral land of the Lenni Lenape. We recognize their continuing connection to the land, waters, and culture of this region, and we invite you to join us in learning more about the original caretakers of this place. 

People’s Light has always called Chester County home. In 1979 we moved to our current location in Malvern, which includes two black box theatres with 340 and 160 seats respectively; offices; scenic shops; rehearsal halls; classrooms; a restored 18th-century farmhouse to house guest artists; the Bistro restaurant; and The Farmhouse banquet and catering facility that can be rented for special events. The Theatre employs 100 full-and permanent-part-time artists and staff members, many of whom live within 15 miles of the campus, and almost 200 guest artists each season from Philadelphia, New York, Washington D.C., and beyond. We operate with an annual budget of $6.4 million and serve 80,000 patrons, guests, students, and community members each year.
