New Fortune Theatre
There are so many great plays which haven't been produced in our home town of San Diego, or anywhere, in FAR too long. New Fortune soars from the ashes of Poor Players, an award-winning, critically-acclaimed San Diego non-profit. Likewise helmed by New Fortune's A.D., Richard Baird, it was beloved for producing what the poor players call, "garage band Shakespeare".

Re-established in 2014, New Fortune is a professional theatre, whose mission encompasses work from all times, which are relevant, revealing, rarely done. Henry V rode with his "band of brothers" to improbable glory that day. And New Fortune too, went on to garner much acclaim for the production, including Craig Noel awards for Outstanding Direction and Outstanding Lead Actor.

New Fortune Theatre Company warns that attending its staged reading of "1984" is committing a "ThoughtCrime."
