The New Hazlett Theater is a dynamic home for the performing arts, offering a flexible venue that can be transformed to support everything from theatrical productions and concerts to community events, workshops, and creative gatherings. With professional equipment, experienced staff, and adaptable spaces, we're here to help bring your vision to life.

- Access to the facility from 9:00 a.m.–11:00 p.m. on your scheduled rental day(s)
- Access to dressing rooms and the green room
- Use of our state-of-the-art theatrical lighting and sound systems
- Box Office setup and staff support
- A designated number of Front of House and Technical staff hours based on your rental package and event needs
No two events are exactly alike, and neither are our rental packages. Whether you're planning a one-day event or a multi-week production, we'll work with you to create a rental package that fits your needs.
Rental pricing is customized based on the type and scale of your event, your requested dates and times, anticipated staffing needs, and any specialty equipment or services you choose to include. Our goal is to provide the support you need—without paying for what you don't.
Ready to get started? Complete our Rental Inquiry Questionnaire and tell us more about your event. Our Events Team will work with you to build a rental package and provide a customized quote based on your plans.
- A $500 refundable security deposit is required for all rentals.
- Most of our in-house equipment is included with your rental. Specialty items—such as projectors, projection screens, wireless microphones, and other production equipment—can be added based on the needs of your event.
- The rehearsal room may also be available as part of your rental, depending on prior bookings and venue scheduling. If you're planning to use it during your rental period, let us know and we'll be happy to check availability. If you need access outside of your scheduled rental dates or times, we're happy to discuss additional rental options.
- Some events require additional staffing—such as extra Facility Attendants, A2, or video/projection technician—to ensure everything runs smoothly. If additional support is needed, we'll discuss those recommendations with you as part of your rental package.
- General Liability Insurance is required for all rentals, with the New Hazlett Theater and the City of Pittsburgh listed as additional insured.
