Presidio Theatre

ABOUT THE PRESIDIO THEATRE

In September 2019 the revitalized Presidio Theatre will re-open its doors in San Francisco’s Presidio National Historic Landmark District. Vacant since 1995, the building has been rehabilitated into a high quality and affordable multipurpose space for live theatre, cinema, dance, music, lectures, educational programming, and special events.

The mission of the Theatre is to ensure that the magic of live performance is accessible to the entire community. By reawakening an architectural jewel in the Presidio and creating a professionally run venue that reflects the rich diversity of the Bay Area, the Presidio Theatre encourages artists to grow and flourish.

The beautifully restored theatre also mitigates a crisis facing performing artists in the Bay Area who are being displaced by the high cost of living, creating a permanent home where artists and audiences can find belonging and authentic connection.

The inaugural year’s programming will reflect the values, vision, and mission of the Presidio Theatre and the rich history, cultural traditions, and innovation of the Bay Area through presentations, co-productions, rentals and special events. An exciting and innovative future awaits.
