Brava! for Women in the Arts is a professional arts organization committed to producing, presenting and cultivating live art celebrating the intersection of feminism and multiculturalism that ignites social change and empowers community. Located in the beautiful Brava Theater Center in the heart of San Francisco’s historic Mission District, we are now entering into our third decade of thought-provoking theater, music and educational programs.

Brava in collaboration with Precarious Theatre invites you to join us in 2009-2010 for an intimate, delicious theatre experience of four plays offered as savory one-night only affairs .
We think that good theatre should be like good food, the more you know about where it came from and how it was made, the better it tastes. Presented as staged readings just like Mom would make dinner- with the best ingredients and an experienced hand- we look forward to bringing our audiences into our kitchen where they can see us roll up our sleeves and create compelling performance.
In our Kitchen Series, we will invite you to join us for wine and small plates of home-cooked snacks, inclusive in our ticket price, and then join us in sitting together on the mainstage of Brava for a uniquely theatrical reading. So please, come to the kitchen, get to know us, pull up a chair, and let the feast begin!
