Gotta Go!
Easily the best theatre in SoCal for new work. Its always solid! Even the shows at the playhouse put on by the UCSD grad program are top notch!
Best theater in SD
I'm a bit biased - the Playhouse is truly near and dear to my heart. I've been going since I was a kid, and participated in their summer conservatory where I met people who I am still in touch with to this day. I've seen some of the best theater of my life here (I Am My Own Wife, 700 Sundays, The Laramie Project, etc.), oftentimes before a production reaches Broadway.
Great Local Theatre
La Jolla Playhouse is the perfect place to see great theatre BEFORE it goes to Broadway, such as Jersey Boys and most recently 33 Variations. It\'s able to draw in big name without having a stuffy theatre feel. With Jai by Wolfgang Puck right next door, it\'s a great place to spend a night out.
