We outgrew that space after two shows, then moved over to 330 Wall Street for the next three shows before settling into our beloved home at the Chico Women’s Club since November 2023. Add in two Big Night Out performances in Laxson Auditorium, two collaborations with Chico State in the Harlen Adams Theatre, two high school productions in Glenn County, two “funny story” workshop series at The Blue Room, a Day of the Dead collab at Chico Chai, a BDEP fundraiser back at 330 Wall Street, and well, dang it, no wonder these three years feel so full and wonderful and amazing.

Hundreds of stories shared, connections forged, and community built. Truly. Tears, laughter, and even a little bit of blood have spilled for this. We’ve lost storytellers (We love you forever Ralph de la Rosa and Dan Diestel) and we’ve made friends, fallen in love, had our hearts broken, witnessed raw humanity in the ways we most need right now. And now, here we are in a barn? Whew! I definitely love to keep you all on your toes!

THREE CHEERS for all we’ve done and all that is to come. This thing we do is important. Deeply. And I can’t thank you enough for being here.
