  • Tina Esper: Golden State 1969

    Golden State 1969 is an epic story about a time when politics, music and danger collided—sending shockwaves through the culture for decades to follow. With characters from the Zodiac Killer to Charles Manson, Mick Jagger and Hunter S. Thompson, this play is a mashup of all that was wonderful, wild and haunting in that fateful year. Bravo, Jared!
