"Love is easy; peace is hard."

Jeff Raz, legendary Bay Area comedian and clown (Cirque du Soleil), puts on the big shoes of Aristophanes, the most satirical wartime playwright of all time. Mount Olympus is no match! Especially when he's armed with a troupe of circus performers and a music-mad muse.

July 30 - September 11
Outdoors at John Hinkel Park!

A suggested donation of $10 is requested of non-Subscribers, though no one will be turned away for lack of funds.

  • Bart/AC Transit:
    Take the #7 AC Transit Bus north from Downtown Berkeley BART station. Once you pass the Arlington Circle, watch for our billboard out on the corner of Arlington and Southhampton Avenue.

  • Driving From SF:
    • Take the 80 N toward Berkeley/Sacramento.
    • Take the Buchanan exit towards Albany. Turn right onto Buchanan after exiting.
    • Go .5 mile on Buchanan, fade right (Buchanan then becomes Marin) and drive 1.6 miles east on Marin to the roundabout at the Marin Circle.
    • Take a right on Arlington Ave and go 1/3 of a mile to Southampton.
    • Turn right onto Southampton – drive one block and look for parking to the left or right.

Feedback Central
We've finally figured out a way for folks to share comments about their experience with the rest of our community. You probably know this already but please consider the following before lettin' it fly:

  • Don't be mean. 
  • Don't write words you wouldn't say in front of your grandma or my daughters.
  • Don't go promoting outside causes.

Sound fair? Good. Now grab that keyboard and break it down.
