Long Wharf Theatre is a performing arts organization based in New Haven, Connecticut, with an estimated 51-200 employees and a website at longwharf.org. Founded in 1965 during the regional theatre movement, it was established to provide a locally created professional theatre in Connecticut with support from community leaders and arts supporters. In 2022, the company announced its departure from the Sargent Drive space to begin a Path Forward initiative aimed at presenting theatre across spaces throughout Greater New Haven. The organization is nationally and internationally recognized for commissioning, developing, and producing new work and for serving as an artistic home for playwrights, directors, designers, and performers. In March 2024, Long Wharf Theatre announced a Mellon Foundation grant of $1 million.
