The Eureka Day School in Berkeley, California, is a bastion of progressive ideals: representation, acceptance, social justice. In weekly meetings Eureka Day’s five board members develop and update policy to preserve this culture of inclusivity, reaching decisions only by consensus. But when a mumps outbreak threatens the Eureka community, facts become subjective and every solution divisive, leaving the school’s leadership to confront the central question of our time: How do you build consensus when no one can agree on truth?

When: June 17th and 18th from 6-10 PM
Where: CCCT (951 Pomona Ave, El Cerrito)
*video submissions will be accepted for this production*

Opening our 2026-27 Season, EUREKA DAY, written by Jonathan Spector, is a sharp, hilarious, and timely comedy set at a progressive Berkeley private school where every decision is made by consensus—until a mumps outbreak throws the community into chaos. As parents and board members clash over vaccine policies, personal freedom, and the limits of tolerance, the play exposes the absurdities and anxieties lurking beneath modern political correctness and “civil” discourse. Directed by Enrico Banson, EUREKA DAY performs September 11-27, 2026 at CCCT.
