Just announced: W. Kamau Bell returns in Who’s With Me?

Emmy and Peabody Award-winning TV host, comedian, filmmaker, and New York Times bestselling author W. Kamau Bell returns Jun 17–22 for an encore performance of Who’s With Me? benefiting Bay Area arts organizations affected by recent NEA funding cuts. In this timely and uproariously funny show, Bell brings questions, insights, and his signature humor to navigate our complicated times. He’s pretty sure the only way we will make it through all of this is if we face it together. So, Bell wants to know: Who’s With Me?

Final week: the aves

Jiehae Park’s poignant new play creates what critics call a “stunningly designed, uniquely theatrical experience.” This world premiere production follows a couple in their later years who encounter what the San Francisco Chronicle describes as a “heady thought experiment that explodes assumptions about mortality.” Acclaimed director Knud Adams transforms the Peet’s Theatre into an immersive environment that’s “visually breathtaking” for a meditation critics say “makes you wish you could watch whole scenes all over again.” Playing through Jun 8.
