After nine years, twenty-nine productions, and fifty-five awards, Marin Summer Theater is giving the creative team the summer off, so there will be no MST productions in 2018. We look forward to making insanely great theatre with you, and for you in the future!


Between California, Massachusetts, and Spain, Elliot Hanson is on a journey, but lucky for us he is somehow making it back to Novato this summer. He did not know it the time this interview was recorded, but Elliot will be in all three productions this year, including DEFYING GRAVITY as Jesus. He has been able to continue performing even while in Madrid, and founded an organization called ABroadway. Watch his video and he'll tell you all about it.

The MST company is not only the people you see on stage. Our shows rely just as much on the skills of our designers and backstage staff and musicians. Meet Catherine Gotz, Stage Manager for INTO THE WOODS and Assistant Stage Manager for IN THE HEIGHTS. This is Catherine's first year with MST and you can get to know her by watching her video.

The MST company prepares and presents three fully-staged productions in a six-week summer season.
