When you live at The Plaza in Foster City, you are conveniently located in close proximity to San Jose, San Francisco and The East Bay.  But often you can find all you need, and sometimes something much more, locally in Foster City and neighboring San Mateo.  Hillbarn Theatre is one of those local gems.

Hillbarn Theatre has a long, endearing history and is the 6th oldest theatre of its kind in the United States and is currently in its 71st continuous season of programming. This is a true gem of a theater. Some of the best productions on the Peninsula are done at Hillbarn Theatre.

Hillbarn Theatre kicks off their 72nd season on August 31st with Ragtime: The Musical. The season continues with a variety of musicals, mysteries and comedies. Be sure to check out their upcoming performances.

Locals love the Hillbarn Theatre experience. Take a look at some of their Yelp reviews:

I saw “Oklahoma” which was just marvelous with some amazing performances. The Laurey and Judd were superb. I then caught “Steel Magnolias” which was so true to life that I felt i was in Louisiana! – Shannon M.

I recently attended the show Oklahoma and absolutely LOVED it! The cast was superb! I thought they belonged on Broadway. I am going to purchase season tickets! We are so lucky to have such a professional playhouse in our community. They deserve our financial support and applause. – Elaine S.

We are so lucky to have a quality theatrical venue in Foster City which is walkable (about .5 mile) from your front door at The Plaza.
