Announcing A.C.T.’s 2026/27 Season!

“I am proud and grateful to announce the final season of my eight-year tenure as A.C.T.’s Artistic Director,” says Pam MacKinnon. “Building on the success of this year and ever continuing to engage the spirit of the Bay, the 2026/27 season reflects fantastic range. From Hitchcockian stylish suspense and audacious comedy to deeply personal storytelling, infused with magic, and a big-hearted laugh-out-loud world premiere musical, this season invites audiences into conversations that are urgent, hilarious, and profoundly human.”

Our 60th Anniversary Season includes Alfred Hitchcock’s North By Northwest, adapted and directed by Emma Rice; the Tony Award®-winning dark comedy, Oh, Mary!, presented in association with ATG San Francisco; the West Coast premiere of Kimberly Belflower’s highly acclaimed new play, John Proctor Is the Villain; the world premiere of The Bad News Bears: A Musical; the West Coast premiere of Branden Jacobs-Jenkins’ The Comeuppance; and the West Coast premiere of Atra Asdou’s madcap comedy, Iraq, But Funny.
