With support from the California Arts Council, SAN FRANCISCO MIME TROUPE will be able to tour our original 2020 musical theater production shining a satirical light on the complexities of today’s pressing issues & activating audiences around civic participation. CAC funds will support a rural Northern CA tour (Redway, Mendocino, Pt. Arena, Ukiah, & fire-affected areas) that SFMT otherwise won’t be able to pursue. The tour will include performances, forums, & one-day playmaking workshops.
Our core programs and services include our legendary live musical production, presented annually in Northern California public parks from Independence Day to Labor Day; the eight-week intensive Youth Theater Program, challenging hundreds of young people with playwriting and performance workshops; the Young California Writers Project, our partnership with Balboa High School that support writing and presentation skills. We also work in our community on projects like the restoration of Juana Alicia’s powerful mural Para Las Rosas.
