About
*Members save 10% off all single tickets! Learn more about becoming a member here.A house party where the whole audience is invited. HOME is an enchanting visual and immersive spectacle that asks what it means to make a house a home. On an empty stage, a house rises before your eyes. Residents past, present and future rollick through its rooms in an impromptu dance that defies time and space, magically transforming our mundane everyday tasks into a glorious, intimate and profound celebration. There’s no show like HOME.
Contains brief nudity of a non-sexual nature.

"Magical. Whatever you do alone in your house is exactly like what everybody else does in their homes. Yet as conjured by [HOME], there’s no despair in the sameness of humans’ domestic life, only joy in shared experience. There’s solace in what binds us, and that rare feeling in theater of an audience of strangers forging true community as they build a house and then empty it again…A home is never just walls and ceiling. It gives you dignity and humanity. It holds who you are. Such is [Geoff] Sobelle’s expansive vision. You might leave HOME wishing he could cast his eyes over your own dwelling, to highlight the magic in your own coffee pot, in the glow of your TV, in the picture frames on your walls. But to attend HOME is also to remember how to see, on your own.” — San Francisco Chronicle
