San Diego Repertory Theatre

San Diego Repertory Theatre was born of a street theatre group called Indian Magique in 1976. The company was founded by Sam Woodhouse and Douglas Jacobs and had its first home in the Sixth Avenue Playhouse. Productions there included 19 San Diego premieres and 12 West Coast premieres of such plays as American Buffalo, The Unseen Hand, Curse of the Starving Class, Ladyhouse Blues, Getting Out, Wings, Working, Bleacher Bums, and K2. World premieres included Funeral March for a One-Man Band and Gold!, a project developed by the company (which included Whoopi Goldberg). Since 1976, the REP has staged A Christmas Carol, reinventing and restaging Dickens's immortal holiday story every two to three ( www.sandiegorep.com )
