Coastal Repertory Theatre is celebrating over 40 years in Half Moon Bay with a full season of Broadway-style live theatre productions, and an active student performing arts program, enriching the lives of kids through the arts. With 6 plays in each Season, plus our 2 Coastal Rep Kids' Theatre (CRKT) productions, all set in our 158-seat theatre, each season is thoughtfully curated with musical blockbusters, comedy, and thought-provoking drama.
Since 1984 over 2,600 students have participated in our comprehensive, year-round theatre education program for K-12 students, Coastal Rep Kids' Theatre (CRKT). The data is strong and clear - students benefit from arts participation infusing their worldviews with culture, boosting overall academic achievement, social engagement, school attendance, and graduation rates. Engagement also promotes college and workforce readiness. We receive some enthusiastic students from families that are in need of scholarships. Your gifts ensure that no student is turned away because of inability to pay.
With a very generous donation from an anonymous theatre-lover, we have installed a state-of-the-art LED projection system and brand new 18' movie screen. This allows us to bring movies and movie theatre rentals to our community.
In the summer of 2025, we underwent some necessary equipment upgrades which has helped keep Coastal Rep on par with industry standards and enabled us to deliver the very best theatre experience for everyone. From the actors on stage, the crew running lights and sound, and the volunteers who share their love of live theatre, all are endlessly grateful to have this gem in our community and we need your help to continue to thrive.
Theatre arts lovers and active volunteers all find a welcoming home at Coastal Rep, and quickly become integrated into our "theatre family," where we inspire, entertain, and educate - connecting people to ideas and each other, promoting discourse, discovery, and creativity.
