San Francisco’s Magic Theatre is dedicated to the cultivation of new plays by providing an artistic home for playwrights, in which a full body of work can be imagined, supported, and produced. Magic Theatre produces five plays per year, the majority of which are world premieres, and serves more than 15,000 audience members. The organization also presents second and third productions, creating sustained relationships with playwrights throughout their careers.
