Since taking flight in 2003, Cygnet Theatre has grown into one of San Diego’s leading theatre companies and is known for producing adventurous, entertaining and thought-provoking live professional theatre year round.
Cygnet began life in 2003 producing high caliber work in a 165-seat house located in San Diego’s Rolando area near SDSU. Nearly half of all productions have been local premieres, as Cygnet believes strongly in bringing new voices to the community. These have been balanced with classics and musicals.
The community response from the beginning was tremendous and Cygnet soon needed a larger venue. In 2008, Cygnet moved to the 246-seat Old Town Theatre in Old Town San Diego State Historic Park, where Cygnet reaches over 40,000 people annually and remains committed to bringing multiple unique voices to the stage.
Since taking flight, Cygnet Theatre has grown into one of San Diego’s largest theatre companies and become known for producing adventurous, entertaining and thought-provoking live professional theatre year round.
Believing in the power of theatre to startle the soul, ignite debate and embrace the diversity of the community in which it serves, Cygnet Theatre Company is fearlessly committed to the dissection, examination and celebration of the human story through the medium of live theatre.
Join us at one of our next shows as Cygnet seeks to be one of the premiere cultural organizations in San Diego by providing theatre productions that make essential contributions to the quality of life in our city.
