Info

Founded in 1992, Shotgun Players is an ensemble of artists on a mission to create bold, relevant, affordable theater. We believe in the power of theater as a mechanism through which we, and our community examine ourselves, and the world. Since taking up a permanent residence at The Ashby Stage in April of 2004, Shotgun Players have landed the Glickman Award for Best New Play in the Bay Area for DOG ACT by Liz Duffy Adams, and produced a large spectrum of fabulous work, including CABARET directed by Russell Blackwood, and a world premiere translation of THE JUST by Albert Camus. Our passion and resolve fuels our work more strongly than ever as we propel ourselves into the new reality of owning a theater, and our 15th season of premieres, collaborations and inventive re-workings of the classics.
