San Diego Theatre Week logo

San Diego’s vibrant theatre scene is well known on Broadway, but maybe not so much in our own backyard.

The annual San Diego Theatre Week is an opportunity to change that, with more than three dozen participating arts groups staging plays and other performances with tickets starting at just $15 during the week of Feb. 15 to 25.

Presented by the San Diego Performing Arts League, the annual event is intended to highlight the variety and enhance the awareness of San Diego’s diverse performing arts community.

San Diego is a major theater center — one of the country’s top three exporters of shows to Broadway — and home to a range of other spectacular performing arts organizations.

A variety of performing arts groups are participating, including The Old Globe, La Jolla Playhouse, Mainly Mozart, San Diego Ballet, National Comedy Theatre, Lamb’s Players Theatre, San Diego Repertory Theatre, San Diego Musical Theatre, Moxie Theatre, New Village Arts, Coronado Playhouse and many more.

Tickets $15, $30 and $45 levels are available online.
