Marin Shakespeare Company, Theater company in San Rafael, California.
Marin Shakespeare Company is a theatrical troupe that stages productions in a 165-seat theater housed within a dedicated Center for Performing Arts, Education, and Social Justice in San Rafael. The facility also operates summer camps, after-school classes, and training programs serving more than 4,000 students annually.
Founded in 1989, the company revived an outdoor Shakespeare festival that had originated at Dominican College's Forest Meadows Amphitheatre during the 1960s. This revival connected historical theatrical tradition with a modern vision focused on education and social engagement.
Theater serves as a tool for healing and personal growth within the communities it reaches. The stage becomes a space where people from different backgrounds can explore themselves and connect with others through shared stories.
The venue is located in San Rafael with good access via public transportation. Check ahead for performance schedules and details about which shows might interest you most.
The Returned Citizens Theatre Troupe gives formerly incarcerated individuals the chance to create and perform original works based on their own life stories. This program demonstrates how creative expression can transform personal narratives into powerful theatrical experiences.
