To provide quality, collective theater that celebrates storytelling to the greater Sacramento area.

Description:
Common House Productions was formed out the fervent desire to provide an outlet for collective and truly democratic theater in the greater Sacramento area. Common House produces works from both established playwrights and new artists that focus on the power of storytelling. Our aim as theater practitioners is to transform an ordinary or unconventional performance space into a "common house": a sacred space that fosters art and transformation. We recognize that the transformative acts of theater impact the individual, as well as the community that takes on the responsibility of telling a story, and we hope to be the catalyst for such transformations in the communities in which we perform. Together we can create a common space that provokes extra-ordinary theater.

COMMON HOUSE PRODUCTIONS IN COLLABORATION
WITH THE UC DAVIS ARBORETUM PRESENT:

THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST
Written by Oscar Wilde
July 5,7,13,19,21 : 8pm

LOVE’S LABOUR’S LOST
Written by William Shakespeare
July 6,12,14,18,20 : 8pm

Watch the battle of the sexes played out on the Wyatt Deck in two hilarious comedies. This summer, Common House Productions presents Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest and Shakespeare’s Love’s Labour’s Lost in repertory.

Wilde’s three-act comedy satirizes social conventions and obligations in its depiction of two young couples trying to navigate the rules of the marriage market in Victorian London. Through the course of the play Jack, Algernon, Gwendolyn, and Cecily will learn the importance of having cucumber sandwiches on hand, of keeping one’s handbags in plain sight, and, above all else, the importance of being Earnest!

In Love’s Labour’s Lost, one of Shakespeare’s early comedies, we are transported to Navarre where a king and his lords vow to swear off women to study. The men’s fortitude will be tested when a princess and three beautiful women come to Navarre and make sport of this male pact.
