Overview

Cal Shakers is a growing group of theater lovers in their 20s, 30s, and 40s who enjoy an insider perspective on Cal Shakes while supporting our organization through attendance, financial support, and volunteerism. As a Cal Shaker, you will:

  • Be invited to great membership parties and events, where you can network and socialize.
  • Be welcomed into Cal Shakes’ family of well-connected board members, staff, artists, and donors. 

Cal Shakers contribute to Cal Shakes simply by joining and attending Shaker events. Shaker membership and event fees help fund Main Stage productions, education efforts (particularly in underserved schools), and new-play development programs. For members who wish to delve deeper into the organization, volunteer opportunities abound.
