Located on the West side of Taylor between Eddy & Ellis, 2 blocks from the Powell St. BART Station, this 66-seat, black box space is around the corner from the Eddy Steet EXIT theatreplex. The house is street level and wheel-chair accessible. EXIT Theatre was founded on Eddy Street in San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood in 1983 when a group of method actors and retired vaudvillians came together under artistic director Christina Augello to perform a new play in the lobby of a residential hotel and passed the hat for funding. The local alternative press has named EXIT Theatre "Best Local Venue", "Best (3,000 miles) Off-Broadway Theater", "Best Off-Beat Theatre" and the artistic director has been named "Best Producer" and "Working Woman of the Year."
