Fat Tuesday in the Fillmore

West Bay Conference Center : Tue., February 21, 8:00pm

The Fillmore district has long been the city’s go-to spot for music so slick and greasy it makes you feel like you cheated on a diet. So it’s only natural that a celebration dedicated to gluttony, recklessness, and debauchery -- Fat Tuesday -- finds the district a nice home to... More >>

Want

ODC Theater : Daily from Fri., February 17 until Sun., February 19

Seeing a dance choreographed by Holly Johnson is like going to a Tennessee Williams play where the actors have forgotten how to speak and instead deliver their lines through movement. Her latest piece, Want, which has its world premier this weekend, dives into the intense emotions of human... More >>

Previously Secret Information

Stage Werx 446 : Third Sunday of every month, 7:00pm

Comedians are “always depressed,” we hear. After we’re done fervently hoping it isn’t true, we wonder how “funny” and “depressing” ever came to be separate categories, especially post-Mitch Hedberg. At Previously Secret Information, they aren’t, sort... More >>

Geezer

The Marsh Theater : Every week Thursday, Saturday, Sunday from Thu., February 9 until Sun., March 18

If you're looking for a little more humanity and a little less apocalypse on the subject of endings, Geoff Hoyle's Geezer is a very funny one-man show about aging, decline, and death. It's back for another run after a successful run in 2011. At the beginning, Hoyle tells us that his father died... More >>

Becky Shaw

SF Playhouse Stage 2 : Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Tue., January 24 until Sat., March 10

Becky Shaw is like a two-hour greatest hits album ... for a soap opera. Have a favorite cliché of the genre? You'll probably find it somewhere in Gina Gionfriddo's careening script. There's a well-to-do family that, upon the death of its patriarch, discovers it has no savings left, and... More >>

The Real Americans

The Marsh Theater : Every week Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., February 17 until Sun., March 18

Self-absorbed coastal types have never been particularly good at understanding rural America, but the last decade seems to have intensified our bewilderment. And that bewilderment — that sense of alienation from how the other half of America thinks and lives — serves as the... More >>

Not Getting Any Younger

The Marsh Theater : Daily from Thu., November 17 until Sat., November 19

Marga Gomez is a stand-up comedian and solo performer. Her eight previous performances include Long Island Iced Latina and Marga Gomez is Pretty, Witty & Gay. Now Gomez, who long ago came out as a lesbian, comes out as, well, aging in Not Getting Any Younger. Although she aimed for total... More >>

Waiting For Godot

Royce Gallery : Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Fri., January 20 until Sat., February 18

"A country road. A tree. Evening." So go the opening stage directions of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, one of the most important plays of the 20th century. But if the set description seems minimal, Tides Theatre's interpretation of them is anything but. Director Jennifer Welch says the... More >>

Little Brother

Gough Street Playhouse : Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Thu., January 19 until Sat., February 25, 8:00pm

Marcus is a 17-year-old hacker – er, high school student – living in San Francisco in the near future. And like any smart hacker – uh, teenager – he lives for technological challenges such as bypassing, disabling, and otherwise eluding his school's surveillance network.... More >>

Kipling Hotel

The Marsh Berkeley : Every week Saturday, Sunday from Sat., January 7 until Sun., March 25

Talk about an identity crisis. Don Reed spent time in the shocking-pink world of 1980s Hollywood with a pimp for a dad. He tried various routes to finding himself: gigolo, stripper, college student. One that stuck (for a while) was a waiter in what he calls a “retirement hotel,”... More >>

Trainwreck Cabaret

Dark Room Theater : Thu., February 23, 8:00pm

We can think of no better remedy for Valentine’s season than some serious knife-gargling, a couple of jiggly boobies, and a whole lot of belly laughs. Understanding the gravity of our need, Trainwreck Cabaret has gathered together some of the Bay Area’s finest. Sword-swallower... More >>

16th and Mission Poetry Slam

16th St. BART Station : Every week Thursday, 9:00pm

Sometimes, we need a little bit more than just poetry and music. Sometimes we have the urge to witness a wild-eyed man with one sweater sleeve missing shove pieces of paper into a coconut and then set it on fire - all while someone yells about why bird porn is a serious issue. The 16th &... More >>

Your F!#&ed Up Relationship

Alcove Theater : Every week Friday, 10:30pm

Improv is not like therapy. Except when it is. And it doesn't provide catharsis. Except when it does. This one (we think) is both. You see, a lot of us (OK, all of us) go through fucked-up relationships at some point. And we probably ought to get therapy (or at least catharsis) but we don't.... More >>

Smack Dab

Magnet : Third Wednesday of every month, 7:30pm

Buried deep down in the very core of our hearts is the passion to perform. We secretly want to dress in 1960s get-up, strap on a ukulele, and do Tiny Tim covers. No? Maybe that's just us. However, we can all agree on the burning desire to perform and create art. The hard part (besides mustering... More >>

Audium-Theatre of Sound-Sculptured Space : Every week Friday, Saturday, 8:30pm

The Audium was started in 1965 by composer Stan Shaff and equipment designer Doug McEachern. Shows are Fridays and Saturdays, and you have to be there on time — they lock the door. The room fits 50 people or so. There are chairs arranged in a semicircle. There are something like 180... More >>
