Every season, Berkeley Rep hosts Page to Stage, a series of free discussions with eminent theatre artists, designed to give audiences additional insight into the plays and playwrights produced at Berkeley Rep. Past programs have featured theatre luminaries such as David Edgar, Sarah Jones, Tony Kushner, Delroy Lindo, Donald Margulies, Terrence McNally, Charles Mee, Rita Moreno, Salman Rushdie and the Chicano performance trio Culture Clash.

  • Monday, September 22—Yellowjackets: Associate Artistic Director Les Waters interviews playwright Itamar Moses
  • Monday, November 3—The Arabian Nights: Theatre critic Robert Hurwitt interviews director Mary Zimmerman (This event to be held at the Berkeley City College Auditorium, 2050 Center Street—click here for map.)
  • Monday, June 15—You, Nero: Artistic Director Tony Taccone interviews playwright Amy Freed

Each talk starts at 7pm and runs about 90 minutes. No tickets are necessary for these free events, but seating is limited. The lobby opens at 6pm with a complimentary Peet’s coffee tasting. Doors open at 6:45pm for general admission seating. Donors who have given $250 or more to Berkeley Rep enjoy priority seating at 6:30pm, plus an exclusive post-talk reception with each guest. For more information, call 510 647–2949.

30-below

There are a lot of reasons it’s great to be under 30. Less wrinkles, more sleep and higher metabolism, to name a few. But there are also a lot of reasons it sucks to be in your 20s—and tight finances tops the list. Need a pick-me-up? Come to Berkeley Rep. If you’re less than 30 years old, you enjoy half-price tickets for nearly every performance.

And, if you select any of the below performances, you’ll also get to attend 30-Below, the coolest theatre after-party for people in their 20s. Free food and drinks, live music and more. It’s a great place to hang out with friends—or maybe make a few new ones. And better yet, it’s free with your ticket.

Join us for season 08/09

For tickets call 510 647–2949 and mention you are interested in buying tickets for 30-Below. Box Office hours: Tuesday–Sunday, noon–7pm.
