Letter from the Executive Leadership of Marin Theatre Company

Welcome! We’re so glad you could join us for this performance. The Sound Inside is the final show in our 2021–2022 season, and what a season it has been! A roller coaster ride that has included some unexpected pandemic delays but most importantly, phenomenal performances of great plays by American playwrights. We’re very happy to include an album of photos from our 2021–2022 season performances on pages 12–14 of this program; we hope you enjoy the memories.

In years prior, this would be the time we would normally be announcing our next season. Of course, normal went out the window two-plus years ago, and we are acutely grateful for all the hard work of our staff, and loyal support of our patrons and donors and civic leaders for our continued survival in the postpandemic world. We believe it is MTC’s time to thrive, and our new plans for the coming season are proof of that. We’ll be taking our longstanding commitment to new American theatre to new heights, in new directions, and in ways that are particularly exciting for us as members of the Mill Valley, Marin County, and Bay Area communities.

While we are not quite ready to announce, we’re excited to share some of what we’re working on, including a partnership with Mill Valley’s own Tamalpais High School’s Conservatory Theatre Ensemble. Four CTE members will join our professional company for a play that will be a continuation of a play CTE will produce simultaneously. We’re also bringing you another new production from MTC’s own Playwright in Residence Lauren Gunderson but this time it’s a continued world premiere musical.

There’s so much more to share with you in the coming months! If you are a past subscriber, you will soon be receiving information on how to renew your subscription for next season— and if you have not been a subscriber of MTC, now is the time. More than at any other point in our history, we need our patrons to go all in with us as we bring you the best new theatrical work. Please join us and help ensure our beloved company continues to be a major force for producing new work in the American theatre and in our local Bay Area community.

Thank you for supporting Marin Theatre Company. Enjoy The Sound Inside.
