Live Theater for Live People
Shotgun Players exists to light up the Bay Area with exhilarating, come-as-you-are live theater. The eye-opening experiences we share push through the static in a way that’s both provocative and disarming, because when there’s no screen between you and the power of the stage, we’re connected and invigorated.
