SF Playhouse is truly one of SF's hidden gems. It's a venue of culture and talent merge into one. I really do hope more people would go to see one of the shows being offered in this theater house.

Fantastic theater in the heart of Union Square. I've been toany shows here - productions are always top notch. The theater is located upstairs within a hotel, and it can be a little confusing the first time. Walk thru the hotel lobby, hop in the elevator, and hit the button for 'theater' - then enjoy!!

The intimacy of the theater makes any production a wonderful experience. The fact that the playhouse showcases new work makes it exciting and the work often provides a lot of material for thought and discussion. The beauty of the building has the charm of history and feels quite comfortable yet elegant.

We saw the 39 Steps. The show was very cleverly done. It was funny and we enjoyed it. We were in the 4th row, so nice to be up close to the actors. But the theatre is not large, so any seat is a good seat. We have seen several shows at SF Playhouse and have enjoyed them. They do a nice job with the sets.

I became a subscriber at SF Playhouse in 2023 and every single show I have seen was delightfully unexpected, superb acting and a great way to be immersed in the arts of San Francisco. If you live here, subscribe! If you are visiting, take in a show - support the arts and get a taste of the magic of the city. I’ve gone to shows solo, with my partner and with friends - all great experiences in their own way. We just saw 39 Steps and have not laughed out loud that hard in a long time. Bravo SF Playhouse, can’t wait to renew my subscription!

Glass Menagerie is a play I've seen many times before. This performance had excellent ensemble acting and was quite enjoyable, staying true to the playwright's intentions. It does not seem dated at all, in spite of its dated theme. I found the turntable staging a little distracting. Could've done without.

We are a group of 6-8 seniors who love theater. The SF Playhouse is our favorite amongst Berkeley Rep, ACT, Marin Theater Co., & the San Jose Rep. SF Playhouse’s choice of plays, quality of actors, great location with easy parking & reasonable ticket prices make it 5-star experience for all ages snd incomes. We love you!

We saw Tennessee Williams' Glass Menagerie. It was an epic experience!! The theater is located in an old hotel with authentic ambience, the theater staff was over the top connecting and loveable, the lighting, sound, and stage settings were perfectly fluid, and the acting was top notch. We left feeling that we had been part of a life-changing experience. Go see a play at the Playhouse!! You'll get what my words can't quite express.

We saw a send up of 39 Steps and it was fun and funny. And implicitly if not explicitly local. But the venue is stately, historic and a bit like being on a movie set. Right in the Tenderloin, or near, so if that is an issue, take a ride.

Love this theater! It is a great mid-priced alternative to the very expensive theaters like Orpheum, and some tiny community theaters that don't offer as high a level of quality and experience. The productions, especially musicals, are of such a high caliber with the most talented casts of singers and dancers. Seats are comfortable with a decent amount of leg room. Productions start on time and snacks are fairly priced compared to other theaters.
