If you are following this page and would like to see our current show, Interrogations: Pre-Election Coverage, please buy tickets soon.

Based on current demand, we will start cancelling performances. Currently, no tickets sold for Sun., Oct. 13 so it's likely getting cancelled if insufficient sales by Saturday afternoon.

We are advertising more than usual but we just aren't seeing the interest. I feel that the kind of theatre we do isn't much in demand these days. It feels more like our last show rather than first show back.

Any interest appreciated.

Removed previous post. Facebook wasn't threatening to delete our page. It was a scam. A really convincing one but from a fake domain. The goal was to get the password. Beware, people, scam artists are active. We were susceptible because we had an ad rejected yesterday.

Once again Facebook has rejected our ads because they don't understand we are putting on a play, not a political rally.

Since we can't advertise due to Facebook's bizarre ad rules, please help us spread the word and share a link to our event.

Thanks Lily Janiak for the incredibly meta and honest article, spurred by our rehearsals for "Interrogations: Pre-Election Coverage". It's rare that the reading public gets a glimpse into the critic's process and thoughts around it. Weaving that into the theme of the plays we're producing is quite wonderful.

“Interrogations: Pre-Election Coverage,” a trio of plays from theater company Performers Under Stress, has parallels to the presidential election — and journalism.

Theatres are closing in San Francisco. Our response: Performers Under Stress is now a California Nonprofit Corporation. We've always made no profit so not much of a change in that aspect. However, this allows us to do some things we haven't been able to do in the past.

More news as we figure out this new direction for PUS.
