Close to You: The Music of the Carpenters has begun their 2017/18 touring season with what is their biggest season to date as they are about to hit a major milestone: their 200th performance.

Due to overwhelming pre-sales and a sold-out opening weekend, freeFall Theatre is extending END OF THE RAINBOW through June 4.

freeFall Theatre continues their season of plays and musicals inspired by true stories with Peter Quilter's END OF THE RAINBOW opening April 29 and running through May 28. Tickets are already selling quickly for this exciting production that triumphed in London's West End in 2010/2011 and on Broadway in 2012.

We surely needed theatre as a tonic for the horrors that defined 2016; here are the best of the best shows in the Bay Area.

A fine cast led by Sycz's haunting portrayal of a photo-journalist brings to life this incisive play.

Melissa Minyard, Kelly Pekar and Nick Lerew shine in this beautiful production.

freeFall's production of THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA is currently open and has been extended through July 17. This lush, deeply romantic musical follows Margaret and her daughter Clara on their visit to Florence in the summer of 1953. When Clara falls in love with a young Italian man, Margaret is forced to not only consider Clara's future, but her own deep-seated hopes and regrets as well. As Margaret attempts to shield her daughter from the outside world we become aware that all is not as it seems, and we are left to ponder the nature of love, desire, regret, and ultimately the beauty of life.
