Eclectic Box SF

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.

At Eclectic Box, we're on a mission to support art and live theatre in San Francisco. We want to provide a space for daring new works to test the waters and for aspiring creators to get their sea legs.
That's why we created Eclectic Emerging, a program that allows performers to gain experience, get mentored, and have a chance to see their vision live onstage like our recent graduates Natasha Nightmare and Allie the Icon from The Nightmare Show!
