Thu Jun 5 - Sun Jul 6
at American Conservatory Theater (see listing for times)

This rarely staged Jacobean tragedy pits the hot-blooded violation of a shocking sexual taboo against the dirty machinations of a corrupt church and state. The result is passionate and poetic, violent and sardonic, and a classic that is mordantly fresh. Starring Tony Award-nominated Michael Hayden and A.C.T.'s own René Augesen, winner of a 2007 Bay Area Theatre Critics' Circle Award, and set to the virtuosic, edgy stylings of cellist-singer Bonfire Madigan Shive.

Sun Jun 8
at Haight Street (11am - 5:30pm)

For the last 31 years, HASF has produced the annual street fair that features arts and crafts, food booths, two musical stages and more. The street fair was developed in response to the re-birth of the economic and residential spirit of the community in the mid-1970's. With the assistance of the late San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk, the first District 5 and openly Gay supervisor, a group of neighborhood merchants, activists and residents developed this organization with the idea of sponsoring a day long community celebration.
