Eureka Day
September 11 to September 27, 2026
By Jonathan Spector
Directed by Enrico Banson
Eureka Day, by Bay Area playwright Jonathan Spector, is a sharp, hilarious, and timely comedy set at a progressive Berkeley private school where every decision is made by consensus—until a mumps outbreak throws the community into chaos. As parents and board members clash over vaccination policies, personal freedom, and the limits of tolerance, the play exposes the absurdities and anxieties lurking beneath modern political correctness and “civil” discourse. Written before the COVID-19 pandemic but made even more relevant by it, Eureka Day brilliantly captures how quickly shared values can fracture when fear, misinformation, and ideology collide, creating a comedy that is as uncomfortable as it is uproariously funny.

“[A] lively portrait... The perfect play for our age of disagreement.” – The New York Times

Frost / Nixon
February 12 to February 28, 2027
By Peter Morgan
Directed by David Bogdonoff
Frost/Nixon dramatizes the 1977 televised interviews between British journalist David Frost and disgraced former U.S. President Richard Nixon in the aftermath of the Watergate scandal and Nixon’s resignation. What begins as a celebrity-style media event evolves into a tense moral reckoning over abuse of presidential power, political accountability, and the manipulation of public perception. Its exploration of image management, partisan loyalty, and the fragile line between democracy and authoritarian impulse resonates as strongly now as it did during Nixon’s era, reminding us that political scandals are never just about one leader, but about the systems and citizens that enable or resist them.
“Structured as a prize fight between two starkly ambitious men in professional crisis, Frost/Nixon makes it clear that the competitor who controls the camera reaps the spoils.” — The New York Times
A Chorus Line
June 4 to June 27, 2027
Conceived and Originally Directed and Choreographed by Michael Bennett
Book by James Kirkwood and Nicholas Dante
Music by Marvin Hamlisch
Lyrics by Edward Kleban
Co Choreographed by Bob Avian
Director To Be Announced
A Chorus Line returns to our stage in a powerful new production that celebrates the dreams, sacrifices, and resilience of performers who dedicate their lives to the theatre. Set during a grueling Broadway audition, the groundbreaking musical invites audiences into the personal stories of dancers fighting for a place in the chorus—and a chance to be seen. The groundbreaking, Pulitzer Prize-winning musical set a new standard for Broadway and remains relevant, poignant, provocative and explosively entertaining today.
“One of Broadway’s all-time greats, with more kick than most other shows combined.” – Time Out New York
