Martha, the daughter of the college president, much to the consternation of her husband, George, a "forty something" professor of history, invites for late night drinks a newly arrived on campus and ambitious young academic, Nick, and his naive wife, Honey. Fueled by prodigious consumption of alcohol, George and Martha ensnare the guests in their no holds barred verbal warfare during which the deepest confidences are betrayed, facades of civility ripped away, pretension and self respect destroyed. And yet the curious alliance of George and Martha survives the maelstrom of their drunken Saturday night and gives promise of redemption in the dawn of Sunday morning.
This Actors Theatre of San Francisco production features Christian Phillips as George, Rachel Klyce as Martha, Alex Garcia as Nick and Jessica Coghill as Honey. Directed by Keith Phillips, Assisted by John Krause. Design by Biz Duncan, Rachel Klyce, James Baldock. <

Tony Award Winner!
"Entrancing tale that delivers a most unusual Christmas miracle? ? Broadwayworld.com
?The funniest McPherson play to date? ? London Observer
These men who make their way home for the holidays aren?t exactly looking forward to sharing a cup of holiday cheer. But a stranger in their midst, in town to collect a major poker debt, forces them to take a look at their lives ? and where they?ll end up if they?re not more careful. The Tony Award winner is a darkly funny examination of Ireland?s culture of drinking and the arguable states of grace achieved by those who embrace it.
Reserved seats for this performance are assigned at the venue based on your purchase time and date.

Based on one audience suggestion (a title for a play that has yet to be written) The Improvised Shakespeare Co. creates a fully improvised play in Elizabethan style. Each of the players has brushed up on his ?thee?s? and ?thou?s? to bring you an evening of off-the-cuff comedy using the language and themes of William Shakespeare. Any hour could be filled with power struggles, star-crossed lovers, sprites, kings, queens, princesses, sword-play, rhyming couplets, asides, insults, persons in disguise and all that we?ve come to expect from the pen of the Great Bard. The night could reveal a tragedy, comedy, or history. Nothing is planned-out. Each play is completely improvised, so each play is entirely new!

The Facets Cinematheque, Pitchfork and Warp Films are proud to present All Tomorrow's Parties, a kaleidoscopic journey into the parallel musical universe of the cult music festival, as well as an ingenious testament to alternative music, communal living, and iconoclastic creativity. Founded by Belle & Sebastian's Barry Hogan in 1999 as an alternative to larger, more corporate festivals, ATP is a sponsorship-free festival where the organizers, artists, and fans all stay in the same chalet-style housing complex. Every year the event is curated by a specific artist or band, essentially making each festival a concert as ultimate mix tape. It is a DIY concert film featuring performances from a host of alt artists including: Battles, Sonic Youth, Belle and Sebastian, Patti Smith, Animal Collective, Grinderman, Iggy and the Stooges, Portishead, Mogwai, Slint, Grizzly Bear, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Gossip, Daniel Johnston and The Boredoms. The film is a semi-found bricolage made from Super8, camcorder and mobile phone footage contributed by over two hundred filmmakers, fans and musicians over the festival?s recent history, with key contributions from co-director Jonathan Caouette (Tarnation) and cinematographer Vincent Moon (The Take Away Shows, Arcade Fire). A truly immersive experience, All Tomorrow's Parties captures the experience from the perspective of fan, artist, and curator alike, celebrating the uncompromising vitality of this unique festival experience. Directed by All Tomorrow?s People and Jonathan Caouette, UK, 2009, 85 mins. Passes will not be accepted to this screening.
