South Coast Repertory was founded in the belief that theatre is an artform with a unique power to illuminate the human experience. We commit ourselves to exploring the most urgent human and social issues of our time, and to merging literature, design and performance in ways that test the bounds of theatre's artistic possibilities.
Two audience favorites from decades past will bookend South Coast Repertory's 2010-2011 season: George Bernard Shaw's mischievous Misalliance, brought to life by SCR Artistic Director Martin Benson, and Richard Greenberg's Pulitzer-nominated Three Days of Rain, directed by Producing Artistic Director David Emmes.
