This actor-driven company has recently moved to a larger 150-seat theater, retaining intimacy while expanding their artistic options their guests' comfort. Occasionally they also host special evenings and readings. Featured playwrights have included G.B.

    Good, inexpensive theatre: When I lived in Berkeley, I used to frequent this theater. Not only do they feature all kinds of theater from contemporary to traditional to ethnic (Maxine Hong Kingston was featured as a "storyteller"), but you can get Pay As You Go tickets for some of the opening shows. A great deal for those who want to watch quality theater for inexpensive prices!
