AlterTheater Ensemble

AlterTheater performs compelling contemporary work in storefronts along downtown San Rafael's Fourth Street. Committed to the creative growth of theater artists and to a community that is inclusive, diverse, and accepting, Alternative Theater Ensemble seeks to make theater more accessible to the non-theatergoing public by producing compelling work in places where people are, and to reconnect all theatergoers with the unique power of intimate, immediate storytelling.

Founded on the principles of ensemble collaboration and artistic risk, AlterTheater Ensemble is also committed to new works and local artists.

The only professional contemporary theater company in downtown San Rafael, AlterTheater hires the same actors you'll see at Berkeley Rep and A.C.T. but, at AlterTheater, they're only inches away from you! AlterTheater's production of Pulitzer Prize winning Lynn Nottage's Intimate Apparel was named in the Top 10 productions of 2010 by the North Bay Bohemian.

Intimate.  Immediate.  AlterTheater.
