S2: Trailer 3 History of Film and Theater
Season 2 Trailer 3: History of Film and Theater
As an artistic hub, The San Francisco Bay Area has a long history of theater and film production. The rich landscape of performers, audiences, and artistic innovation makes it home to some of the best community and experimental theater in the country. Its idyllic location, with ocean views, historic landmarks, and a lush natural landscape, draws filmmakers from all over the world as well. In particular, documentary filmmakers are drawn to the Bay because of its reputation for being open and welcoming of ideas that are inventively outside the box.
This five-episode series takes a deeper look into just how outside the box our local artists can be, and gives you the opportunity to get to know some of the amazing work that’s going on in our own backyard. We open our new and exciting History of Film and Theater series with these five guests:
Jo Schuman Silver of Beach Blanket Babylon
Hamilton Actor Brendon Chan
Zoe Elton, Director of Programming for the Mill Valley Film Festival
Margo Hall Artistic Director of the Lorraine Hansberry Theater
And Jonathan Moscone, Chief Producer at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts.
Enjoy our History of Film and Theater series!
