Review from Evil M.

For those who do not appreciate the local performing arts scene, Fresno has a lot to offer.
With many local companies churning out professional productions with talented, local amatuer actors, you could see several new productions every week.
2nd Space is a great little theater in the heart of the Tower. Good Company Players stages half of their shows here...typically non-musicals.
A few weeks back, I saw 12 Angry Men, which is one of Evil's favorites. Excellent production. I felt the small theater enabled the cast to emphasize the claustrophobic feeling of the original. Wonderful.
Next up is an actual musical for 2nd Space, which is rare.
The best part is that you get a well done show for a very affordable price! -

Wonderful small theater operated by the Good Company Players in Fresno's Tower District. I was never a huge theater buff in high school, but during my college years I would come to see my friend's (and sometimes their parents!) perform in a myriad of plays. They give discounts on tickets, which are already pretty cheap, to students (or...err...those that still happen to have their old ID card around...) and a host of other subsections of the population demographic. I love wandering around the lobby during intermission to see all the cast photos from previous plays, recognizing a surprising number of people in the process. Lots of good, local talent entertaining the masses. Good stuff going on here. Also, if you are in the Good Company Players for a long enough time, they give you their "Lifetime Achievement Award": a leather jacket, wooden cane, and carte blanche to whap anyone you see fit.
Just kidding.... They don't give you a cane....
