Marines' Memorial Theatre
A 564-seat historic theatre on Sutter Street near Union Square, for performances and event rentals.
Acerca de
Two blocks uphill from Union Square, on the second floor of the Marines' Memorial Club at 609 Sutter Street, is a 564-seat theatre that opened in 1926 and has been a working stage ever since. Marines' Memorial Theatre is run under the Marines' Memorial Association, a veterans' nonprofit, with day-to-day operations by Theater 33, LLC. Milen Orendain is the director on file for this listing. Its history includes years as the home of the Actors Workshop and the American Conservatory Theatre, and runs of Stomp!, Angels in America and Forever Tango.
On the stage and in the room
The theatre programs its own season of live music, dance, author talks and lectures alongside theatrical productions and film presentations. The other half of the calendar is rentals: the association hires the hall out for corporate meetings, civic ceremonies, school and university events, product launches and film screenings, with the club's hotel and dining rooms in the same building for receptions before or after. The room is a mid-sized historic house, which suits spoken word and acoustic performance as well as amplified shows.
Booking the theatre or buying a ticket
For a rental, contact the venue office with your date, expected attendance and technical needs; ask what the base rate includes in staffing, lighting and sound, what the labour rules are for load-in, and how far ahead popular dates such as December and graduation season book up. Ask about lift access to the second floor and whether the club's parking arrangements extend to your guests. Ticket buyers should confirm which box office is selling a given show, because the theatre's own number and the ticketing service's number differ, and street parking around Sutter and Mason is scarce, so the Sutter-Stockton garage or the Powell Street cable car and BART are the practical routes.
Union Square, Nob Hill and across the bay
The building sits where the Union Square shopping district climbs toward Nob Hill, in San Francisco's 94102 zip. Audiences come from across the city and from Daly City, South San Francisco, Brisbane, Colma and Sausalito, and from Oakland and Alameda by BART and the Bay Bridge.
The number on this listing is 415-447-0188; the theatre's website currently gives 415-289-9979 for the venue office, and the site carries the calendar and the rental inquiry form.
