“We produce theatrical experiences in the historic cushing memorial amphitheatre, an outdoor, greek-style stone theatre built by the wpa and nestled at the top of mount tamalpais, overlooking the san francisco bay, as well as indoor & online performances throughout the year. At each performance, low fee transportation to the theatre from three sites in mill valley is provided for patrons in school buses. Return transportation is provided free of charge by the organization. American sign language interpretation is provided at some performances. Local agencies participate in our "day on the mountain" community engagement program, receiving free tickets, roundtrip transportation, t-shirts, lunch and a guided hike in the state park. We also provide teaching artists for after school students and provide a theatre program using drama skills to provide young people with a safe space to explore, create and express themselves. We work to integrate our annual programming with the whole community, deepening the bonds between audience and the arts, through partnerships, education, collaboration and fun”
