Reviews
"Wonderful production, excellent acting, exquisitely choreographed."
"Just saw Born with Teeth and it was SUCH a treat—incredibly written play, superbly acted. The Aurora is a lovely, intimate venue without a bad seat in the house."
"What a treat it was to attend the Aurora Theater company's production of Hurricane Diane this past weekend the intimacy of the space is its strength with four rows of seats in a semicircle thrust pattern around the playing area the audience is never more than 10 or 12 feet from what's going on on stage. The production values of the theater company are first class scenery lighting costuming it's a little Jam in downtown Berkeley right next to Berkeley Rep on Addison making a little theater row for those of us in the East Bay the road theater company has got a number of discount pricings for their tickets depending on the group you may fit into students seniors teachers returning ticket holders friends of ticket holders you name it so if you plan to go which I highly encourage check out their website or talk to someone who has a ticket in that case $10 off but go help keep Live Theater thriving as it is in downtown Berkeley"
"Great place to see a play: small, close to the action, fun. Witnessed the public reading of a play in the works of a friend. Very cool environment, inclusive in the best sense. Check it out."
"This is like your best friends house - casual, friendly and always entertaining. The intimacy provides a much different, and in some ways better, experience than going into the City or even Broadway. If you are any type of patron of the arts, this is a must go. Also - loved Dry Powder."
