HERE WE GOOO! 🚨 Our Saturday Salon series is about to kick off this weekend. All salons are open to the public and FREE to attend. Each live painting created by Daniel J. Watts will also be auctioned off at the end of the evening!

Following every Saturday evening performance of IN HONOR OF JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT, join multi-hyphenate Tony Award nominee Daniel J. Watts in a continued celebration of Basquiat’s life and legacy. With music, spoken-word and his singular practice of painting with his feet while he dances, Daniel and his special guests will bring the party to 4th Street!

Special guests include the talented Sage Gallon, Ari Grooves, Joan Morgan, Ph.D., Lee Quinones, Michael Thurber and Tiana Webb Evans.

ICYMI: HERE THERE ARE BLUEBERRIES is headed to Broadway!

We were honored to co-produce the New York premiere in the spring of 2024, more than 30 years after director Moisés Kaufman became an NYTW Usual Suspect and co-founded Tectonic Theater Project. Among the first company members was playwright Amanda Gronich, who went on to co-write this extraordinary production.

In March of 2020, we hosted a reading of HERE THERE ARE BLUEBERRIES that would prove to be the last reading in our space before the COVID shutdown that paused in-person theatre.

Flash forward to 2022 when Patricia McGregor—preparing to take the helm as our incoming Artistic Director—saw HERE THERE ARE BLUEBERRIES at La Jolla Playhouse and knew it urgently needed a place on our stage in her first curated season.

Now, we can't wait to celebrate Here There Are Blueberries and all of the artists, historians, researchers and champions who've supported this project along the way!
