Candlestick
January 23 - February 3
Campo Santo
1117 Market Street, San Francisco, California 94103
Candlestick follows a group of longtime Bayview residents and 49ers fans tailgating during the team’s final season at Candlestick Park in 2013. As they relish the last few games in the parking lot, the struggle to hold onto something permanent in the face of change becomes all the more desperate. Candlestick is an ensemble drama about family, football, the changing face of the Bay Area, and what happens when we are about to lose the things we love. Recreating a tailgate for both actors and the audience, Candlestick is both a performance and party in one – part celebration, part wake, not to be missed. Featuring Donald Lacy, Juan Wonway Amador, Brit Frazier, Florentino Gonzales, Anna Maria Luera, Brian Rivera, and Lauren Spencer. Directed by Ellen Sebastian Chang. Collaborative Design Team: Nikki Anderson-Joy, Rachel Mogan, Tanya Orellana, Joan Osato, @otherwise.co, Chris Michael Sauced, Ashley Smiley, Maxi Miliano Urruzmendi, Brittany White.

Hassan is a Somali-American airport shuttle driver in Minneapolis, struggling to make ends meet as more and more of his customers switch to Uber and Lyft. So when a stranded teenager at the airport pays Hassan to take him to Chicago, it seems like it’s worth the risk. Until it isn't. A claustrophobic thriller about privilege, paranoia, and the assumptions we make about one another. Directed by Tara Wibrew.
