No matter what they put on-it is absolutely worth seeing. Go once and you'll be hooked-it is Alameda's best kept entertainment secret. I have seen 5 shows here and every one was a stunner. Their current production is a puppet laden musical odyssey entitled "Ship of Fools, Act II-The Terrible Beast". I saw Act I here last summer and it was simply incredible. Seats are $15 (a total steal of a deal), there isn't a bad seat in the house, parking is free, and the people are uber cool and friendly. You absolutely can't go wrong. Highly recommended if you want to see something truly creative and captivating!
