JUNE 10-13, 2026


June 10-13 at the Eclectic Box theatre in San Francisco, Play Space presents a program of four short plays.

Each play is brand new and debuting at Play Space. They're all 15-25 minutes long and were created this spring by Bay Area writers, directors, producers, and rowdy theatre people.Each night, audiences will get to see all four plays, with an intermission between the 2nd and 3rd plays.


Play Space is produced by Elsa Touche and Jubilee (Joe Wadlington) and aims to unite, spotlight, and energize the Bay Area theatre scene.

The selected plays are:

Shah/Holmes, written by Margaux Poupard and Meg Hayes and directed by Melanie Marshall, is a buddy comedy that follows notorious tech founder Elizabeth Holmes and notorious Real Housewife Jen Shah as they meet in prison and do what they do best: fraud.INTERIOR. SEX PARTY., written by Siyu Song and Fernando Gambaroni and directed by Justin Sacramone, is an intelligent comedy that takes place during an orgy.Satan v. The Indiana Abortion Ban, written by Leah Barsanti and directed by Beulah Vega, is a courtroom satire that follows a pregnant woman appealing for an exception to the state’s abortion ban because she worries about who … or what … the father is.Tennessee Williams Is Dead, written by Peggy Powell and directed by Maryssa Wanlass, is a reflection on the value art making brings to the artist’s life — no matter its quality.
