Small Biz Gone Viral

They are the longest running show in the history of the city, with over 6000 performances to date. Gary is also the Executive Director of Unscripted Learning, a non-profit which uses improvised theatre to work with students on the autism spectrum. Recently, Gary was the Executive Director and Vice President of the Board of the San Diego Performing Arts League. True to his nature, you will enjoy the levity Gary brings in delicately telling the story of the pandemic’s potential for closing his theater and the long lasting impact on the arts while still leaving room for laughter.
