Be a Part of Making Bay Area Culture​

Since the dawn of civilization, Theater has invited the audience to feel what it’s like to be in someone else’s shoes.  We need it now more than ever.

But for us to do this meaningfully—with honesty, respect, and joy—calls for an audience that reflects the plurality and diversity of the Bay Area. Because who is in the audience matters much as who’s on stage. That’s what our Shared Light Initiative is all about, and that’s why we need you.

We literally can’t do it without you: 60% of our production funding comes from Individuals and Institutions.  So join us up at the Bruns. Breathe in the Eucalyptus. Shake off the hurly burly of your daily life and sink into a story under the heaventree of stars —you’ll be doing a world of good.
