"Small theatre at its best!" SF Bay Guardian Master Harold...

Meadowland concluded its World Premiere as a the largest grossing production in Second Wind history! But if you missed it, don't worry-- there's more to come. Second Wind's next production is slated for October 23rd. Our show is still to be determined, but we've been reading ghost stories. Between then and now we've got several projects in the works, including a staged reading of Ian Walker's newest play, The Tender King, a redesign of our website with goodies and freebees for theatre artists and producers, and a e-bulletin with discounts to other Bay Area shows.

The Tender King is a startling exploration of the hours surrounding the decision to drop the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Whatever you think you know about this pivotal time in history is about to challenged. Weaving both the personal and the political, popular mythology and declassified materials, The Tender King is a terrifying, funny, suspenseful, and moving drama about intimacy, sex, and the limits of war.

Second Wind is dedicated to theatre that approaches social and political issues from the human perspective. We embrace the tradition of theater as an instrument of both education and catharsis. Charles Brousse of the Marin Independent writes: "Second Wind has a goal that is rare in today bottom-line driven theatre world: to use the stage to explore social and political issues that impact ordinary Americans lives." And now you can become a part of the process! For our October production, author and director Ian Walker will be hosting a Video Diary of the rehearsal and design process so you can watch the show develop from behind the scenes. Beginning September 20th, you'll be able to watch clips of rehearsals, learn about the designers, find tips for auditioning, casting, rehearsals, and hear from the director.
