A fully produced short play festival featuring 8 original plays written by local San Francisco playwrights. Dealing with disparate topics from trying to get a job to trying to solve a decades old murder, from new to old romance, and from paint on canvas to the space time continuum these plays trace a common theme of perception and how we navigate reality when it can’t be relied upon or doesn’t hold up to the preconceived.

“What a wealth of talent on display! The depth and range of the Bay Area Theatre community never ceases to amaze me.” – Carol Lashoff
