Eclectic Box SF

Eclectic Box is focused on bringing stories to the stage that you won't find anywhere else. A 70-seat Theatre in the heart of The Mission.

Our goal is to showcase new sides of theater and introduce as many people as possible to the magic of live performances. Whether it's a reimagining of a classic movie, improv and sketch comedy, or original works you've got to see to believe, Eclectic Box is ready to present all of it. Live theater is a staple in San Francisco and we want to not only keep it going but bring it to another level. We'

re here to be the new home to the dreamers of dreams, an inclusive space for creativity, the wild artistic pulse that has drawn so many bright lights to our technicolor city. Eclectic Box is continuing the San Francisco tradition of giving a place for the off-beat among us to see visions come to life. Stop by and see what we're all about.

Tonight there's two more Sketch and Improv Showcases with troupes like One Bad Egg and Two Loud G**s plus plenty others and tomorrow we've got an Edinburgh Spotlight show at 3 PM with Woody Fu's One Man John Wick and another round of Sketch and Improv featuring The Satan Sisters, Bad Medicine, Newt Work Comedy and more, then on Sunday at 3 PM, The London Cycling Man takes the stage for our penultimate Edinburgh Spotlight and we wrap up this stretch with a final (for this weekend, at least!) double header of Sketch and Improv.
