I came to see "Co-Founder" the musical. The show was amazing! But this review is about the venue. It was my first time here, and I was blown away with how nice and modern it was.

The strand is a great little Theater that has had an updated look. They're part of act which has historically put on lots of good plays at the Geary Theater. This is a nice addition to the mid-market areas right across from UN Plaza. Stephanie has been a sketchy area and still is at times but we went for the afternoon matinee and felt okay out there. They do have some guards manning the doors. The show itself was really good. It was one of their shows that is showcasing local talent and part of a clear effort to have more diversity in their offerings. The show was about a woman who made masks with a group of women during covid and it turned out to be a really good way to process that experience, which I hadn't thought about in many years. And also a great story about the compassion of this group of women who are mostly Asian American, but all kinds of women. The woman behind the one woman show was inspired And engaging throughout the whole show which ran about 90 minutes, perfect for the shorter attention span these days.

I had a great time revisiting ACT Theater recently after the long pandemic hiatus. We parked nearby and discovered a fantastic cocktail bar up the hill, serving better drinks than the theater itself. We caught the final night of "Wizard of Oz," a vibrant explosion of colors on stage. The theater was buzzing as it coincided with the last day of Pride weekend. We even dressed in matching purple outfits to join the festive spirit. What surprised us most was the unexpected shower of bubbles cascading from the ceiling during the show. It added a magical touch that made us smile throughout. After the performance, we satisfied our hunger at a Thai restaurant conveniently located across the street. The flavorful dishes hit the spot and provided a perfect ending to the night. This visit reminded me why I love live performances. The excitement, joy, and unique moments are incomparable. I'm determined to return to ACT Theater more frequently and immerse myself in its enchanting atmosphere. In summary, my recent experience at ACT Theater was a delightful blast. The vivid stage, the whimsical bubble surprise, and the delicious Thai food afterward made it an unforgettable evening. If you're seeking a fantastic time, rediscover the magic of ACT Theater and embrace the lively world of live performances.
