We continue our celebration of our community, this time with Lauren Matley, aka Loe. You’ve seen her captivating images on our website, in our emails, and on our stationery since 2013.

Loe's ebullience and positivity, along with her can-do, will-do, already-did-done attitude and ethic have carried us through many a challenging passage.

We may have moved out of Golden Gate Park, but we're not ready to leave Wonderland! We'll be sharing our favorite memories from our trip through the Looking-Glass all this month. All of our Adventures with Alice photos were taken by the incredible Lauren Matley. We just love the light she captures, the magic of the mist, the Maxfield Parrish quality of her work! L

Let’s start at the beginning...

The March Hare, the Dormouse, the Mad Hatter: alone, they're nothing more than three individuals drinking tea in the woods. But together they're THE TEA PARTY - that terrific trio of madcap mania, specializing in strange sartorial situations and rife with riddles and rooibos. Playing every so often, once in a while, and just occasionally in your local magic forest clearing.

Do not miss the madness!

Head down to San Francisco's Great Highway on October 12 for a free PSYCHOPOMP Pop-up performance!

Dance with Hermes, the golden messenger god of the ancient Greeks… here a hula-hooping wonder who celebrates in pure squawks. Meditate and make offerings with Ox Head/Horse Face, guardian of the gates to the Chinese underworld… Rock out with the Valkyries, winged goddesses of glory and victory… and help them get the band back together! Let the ancient oarsman Charon tow you to safety across the river Styx… or a patch of questionable pavement as the case may be.

In this, our 23rd season, we brought you wonder and whimsy with our Adventures with Alice as well as a return visit from our hero, Caretta Caretta, of The Keeper. We brought you music galore! Two newly-released albums: Twelfth Night and The Odyssey and a live concert of the music from Macbeth. We expanded our presenting partnerships with our debut at Cal Shakes and our return to Montalvo Arts Center.

If something we did this year brought you joy or wonder, if a line or a visual stuck with you, if we made you feel something surprising or sweet - please give what you can today. We're remarkably resourceful, so even a little means a lot!

Deep thanks for your support, we are so grateful.
