San Francisco Schauspielhaus
Thespisjünger auf der Suche nach inspirierendem Theater und bewegenden Darbietungen müssen nicht nach New York City reisen. Das liegt daran, dass Orte wie das San Francisco Playhouse qualitativ hochwertige Arbeit in die Straßen der Bay Area bringen. Dieses gemütliche Theater bietet den Besuchern einen intimen Raum, um überzeugende (und manchmal skurrile) Produktionen wie „Ideation“ und „Tree“ zu erleben. Und vielleicht das Beste von allem ist, dass dieser lokale Ort frei von Anspruch ist.
Das San Francisco Playhouse vermittelt ein echtes Gemeinschaftsgefühl. Hochwertige Akustik, bequeme Sitzgelegenheiten und ermäßigte Eintrittskarten tragen dazu bei, das Theater der Masse zugänglich zu machen - trotz der geringen Größe dieses Raums.
The basics
Experience top-notch theater at the San Francisco Playhouse, just a block from Union Square. The best way to visit it is by public transportation, including the bus, metro, or BART—the Bay Area's regional transit system. You can also book a sightseeing tour or hop-on hop-off bus tour, most of which pass by Union Square. Alternatively, visit by foot with a self-paced walking tour around Market Street, Chinatown, and nearby Nob Hill.
Things to know before you go
- The playhouse is a great place to see a new performance; the theater puts on six mainstage productions and several premieres each year.
- Theater lovers should visit for the Sandbox Series, which promotes new works including many world premieres.
- Plan to buy tickets in advance—online or at the box office—since weekend performances may sell out.
How to get there
