Founded in 1959, the San Francisco Mime Troupe creates and produces socially relevant theater; despite the name “mime,” their work is not pantomime, but live musical comedy and political satire.

The Tony Award-Winning San Francisco Mime Troupe opens their 66th Season (July 4 – Aug. 3, 2025) with DISRUPTION – A Musical Farce, opening Thursday, July 4, 2025 in Dolores Park in San Francisco.

Running throughout the Bay Area in SF, Ukiah (Mendocino), Cotati (Sonoma), East Bay, Santa Cruz, and Davis,  July 4 – Aug. 3, 2025.

All shows are FREE and open to the public unless otherwise listed.
Paid ticketed performance: Z Space’s Stiendler Stage: Wed., July 23, 2025 (Indoors).

Three shows will require RSVPs:

  • Davis HS, Richard Brunelle Performance Hall, Thurs. July 10, 2025 (Indoors) FREE – donations accepted
  • Ukiah High School, Cafetorium, Sat., July 26, 2025 (Indoors) FREE – donations accepted
  • Z Space’s Stiendler Stage, 450 Florida, San Francisco, Wed. July 23, 2025 (Indoors) – Paid

DISRUPTION – A Musical Farce asks the political question: as the United States slides towards authoritarianism will San Francisco become a center of resistance, or just a corporate suburb of Silicon Valley?

Short Synopsis:

In a city where nothing is more important than “innovation” Augie – a son of immigrants whose life is all about helping his neighbors navigate an increasingly underfunded system. Meanwhile a tech genius is all about making a city attractive to the right kind of people. Who wouldn’t want that? Soon San Francisco will be a suburb of Silicon Valley – and just in time for the president’s upcoming visit. But if the city is poised to be a calm, efficient paradise why is everything suddenly on… FIRE!
