Magic Theatre
THEATER
SF's upstart theater company earns its risk-taking rep with provocative plays by Terrence
McNally, Edna O'Brien, David Mamet and Sam Shepard (long-time playwright-in-residen-
ce), performed by talents like Ed Harris, Sean Penn and Woody Harrelson. Watch the next
generation break through in professionally staged works written by teenagers from the
Young California Writers Project.
