🎭 Dan Hoyle’s Takes All Kinds at The Marsh San Francisco 🎭 Award-winning actor and critically acclaimed playwright Dan Hoyle returns with his timely and relevant new solo show, Takes All Kinds, which draws from hours of interviews across a polarized America. Directed by Aldo Billingslea and Michael Moran and developed with Charlie Varon, Takes All Kinds continues Hoyle’s unique brand of journalistic theater as he showcases the front lines of the biggest political battles in the country, from school board showdowns in Sarasota, Florida, to organizers in the streets of Atlanta. Hoyle discovers a country full of rage and fear but also encounters people who are joyfully and creatively pushing the country forward against all odds. 🗓️ Previews: Aug 31 - Sept 14 | Run: Sept 20 - Oct 26 
📍 The Marsh San Francisco, 1062 Valencia Street

Featuring two weekends of world premiere performances and celebrations of Caribbean arts and culture, the 18th Annual CubaCaribe Festival of Dance & Music kicks off soon! Weekend One: June 7 - 9 at Dance Mission Theatre in San Francisco. Inspired by this year’s theme — Acts of Resistance, Acts of Joy, seven local dance companies will create original choreography rooted in the Caribbean and its Diaspora exploring the questions: Where are the two acts visible in your culture? How do we resist? How do we find and express joy?   Weekend Two: June 14 - 16 at ODC Theater in San Francisco. Choreographers Ramón Ramos Alayo of Alayo Dance Company and Marcia Treidler of ABADÁ-Capoeira San Francisco collaborate to present an evening-length piece investigating Brazil and Cuba’s history and significance with Carnaval, specifically to the African heritage and culture, deepening understanding of the cultural legacy of Blocos, Cabildos and comparsas in Carnaval and how they have historically functioned as forms of resistance and power and expressions of joy. Tickets are available at CubaCaribe.org/2024 @cuba.caribe @dancemissiontheater @odcsf (5/21/24)

Congratulations to the creative team, cast, and crew of Larry the Musical! This new hit show follows the often-overlooked story of labor leader Larry Itliong and the Filipino American farmworkers who organized the 1965 Great Delano Grape Strike, which teamed with the Mexican labor movement to win better pay and benefits for agricultural workers and led to the formation of the United Farm Workers. It also offers compelling historical portrayal of Filipinos from the 1920s-1970s. Performances through April 23 at Brava Theater. Tickets are selling quickly.

Coming to the Presidio Theatre on Wednesday, Feb. 28th, 6:30PM: Alternative Facts: The Lies of Executive Order 9066. A film Jon Osaki. ALTERNATIVE FACTS sheds light on the people and politics that influenced the signing of the infamous Executive Order 9066, which authorized the mass incarceration of nearly 120,000 Japanese Americans. The film will expose the lies used to justify the decision and the cover-up that went all the way to the United States Supreme Court. ALTERNATIVE FACTS will also examine the parallels to the current climate of fear, attitudes towards immigrant communities, and similar attempts to abuse the powers of the government. A not to miss screening at the Presidio Theatre which sits not far from the 35 Keyes Avenue building where the executive order was implemented. There will be a panel discussion following the screening including the filmmaker, producer, involved civil rights lawyer Don Tamaki, and activist Karen Korematsu. This event is sponsored by the Bay School of San Francisco and the Presidio Trust, and the film was supported in part by the Fleishhacker Foundation. #activismfilm #documentary #filmmakers #supportthearts #alternativefacts
